$AAOI smashed down 9 points yesterday, hitting a price of 173.81, with a funding rate of 0 and an open interest still holding at 25,000 contracts. The market is aggressively eating the dip. This isn't small fry in the TradFi perp space.
The root of the sell-off is Trump. He's hinting at raising tariffs again, causing tech stocks to shudder, and the comms sector is taking a hit. But the funding rate staying positive indicates it’s not a collective short attack; it feels more like the bulls couldn't hold and are getting liquidated. Open interest hasn’t collapsed, and there are still plenty of players catching the falling knife. A bounce back to the 178-180 range will act as a wall.
My move is straightforward: shorting. Direction: short. Leverage: 3x. Stop loss: 180. Take profit: 165. Position size: 10% of total capital. If the price touches 178, I’ll double down on the short. One tweet from Trump can tank the market, so don’t stubbornly resist his rhetoric.
