“0.71→0.76, OP is performing a 'volume reduction squat': is it a golden pit or a trap?”

【Quick Overview】

OP is like a compressed spring - the price is close to the lower Bollinger Band, 6% below the cost of holdings, yet a massive amount of 'silent buy orders' has piled up near the 0.76 value anchor; the reduction in volume and negative funding rates suggest that shorts are overly crowded, and a single strong bullish candle could trigger a mean reversion.

【Key Interval Structure】

1. Value Anchor Zone (POC): 0.7609, with a transaction of 144 million pieces in the past two weeks, accounting for 4.3% of the total, serving as a 'central' point contested by bulls and bears.

2. High Volume Node (HVN): 0.7540-0.7626 forms a three-layer buffer, any pullback to this area is likely to trigger a rebound; the upper zone of 0.7850-0.7902 serves as the second dense area, targeted for short-term goals.

3. Low Volume Node (LVN): 0.8609-0.8850 is an upper void, and a breakout here could accelerate; the lower zone of 0.6126-0.6298 is a deep retracement vacuum zone.

4. 70% Volume Coverage Area: 0.6506-0.8196, the current price of 0.708 is in the lower 1/3 of the range, showing no signs of being overbought.

【Momentum Validation】

• Near POC Up/Down Volume 51:49, nearly balanced, indicating that the main force has yet to express its position.

• In the 4-hour cycle, volume increased by 85%, but the price only slightly fell by 0.92%, with volume-price divergence suggesting short exhaustion.

• Contract holdings increased by 5.5% in 24 hours, but the long-to-short ratio dropped from 2.34 to 2.28, indicating a stronger short accumulation, thus expanding the squeeze space.

【Market Cycle】

Mid-term downward channel (14d -47%), short-term entering a consolidation bottoming phase; Bollinger Bands are narrowing, RSI at 54 is neutral, waiting for direction choice.

【Trading Strategy】

• Aggressive: Buy directly at the current price of 0.708, stop loss at 0.680 (lower band + 0.5 ATR), target 0.760-0.785, risk-reward ratio 2.8.

• Conservative: Wait for a pullback to 0.650-0.655 (LVN + large spot order wall) to enter after Up Volume > 60% and a 15m engulfing pattern occurs, stop loss at 0.640, target 0.725, risk-reward ratio 3.1.

• Cautious: Chase long after breaking and stabilizing above 0.722 (upper band) with a volume of 1.5× average volume, stop loss at 0.708, target 0.785, risk-reward ratio 2.4.

Strategy invalidation: Fall below 0.640 or a 1h close below MA200-2%.

【Risk Warning】

Macroeconomic risks, BTC volatility, and contract liquidation chain reactions may penetrate LVN.
