Abnormal growth in open interest: how major players are gaining ground
Open Interest (OI) is the total volume of outstanding futures contracts. When it grows faster than usual, new money is entering the market. This is not the same as trading volume: high trading volume with stable volume means positions are being shifted among traders. Growth indicates the opening of new positions.
An abnormal 24-hour increase (15–30% or more) with little price movement is a classic "compressed spring." Large participants accumulate positions, deliberately preventing price movement through algorithmic execution and limit orders. The longer the price rises without movement, the greater the potential momentum.
The "Abnormal Open Interest Growth" preset sorts coins by the percentage change in open interest over a 24-hour period. Combine with funding: positive funding during growth OI — Longs dominate, growth likely. Negative — shorts are accumulating, potential for a short squeeze.
