$STRK This move is kind of interesting.
In the 15m timeframe, it surged 2.23%. Volume directly reached 1.92x, the Z value is 3.40, and the price just closed near the upper edge of roughly the last 20 5m candles. The key isn’t merely a straight “pump”—the OI over 1h also rose by 1.46%. Nominal 665K came in, the abnormal percentile is 83.9%, and the entire pool is ranked at #23. This is new leveraged long demand pushing it, not that kind of “shorts covering” with fake heat.
The active trade imbalance is 5.8%, buy/sell ratio is 1.12, and the funding rate is also at a recent high percentile. In the past 24h, turnover is 140M; the depth is sufficient—it’s not a thin pool for needle-poking.
Structurally, it’s a combination of price rising + OI increasing, which is healthier than a one-off liquidation-driven squeeze. But at this funding-rate level, you still need to stay alert—don’t blindly chase when sentiment is at its hottest. First, see whether it can hold above this range’s upper boundary; if the pullback doesn’t break it, that’s a good sign.
