Derivatives

Open Interest

BTC-Funding-Rate

Open interest, which was around $26 billion at the beginning of the week, fell sharply to $24.5 billion el April 10. At this point, there was a significant liquidation of the market’s leveraged trading volume or traders quickly closed their positions. The BTC price also fell el the same day, suggesting that the closing of long positions was synchronized with the price. Between April 11 and 12, price and open interest rose rapidly together, and this synchronized rise suggests that the market is recovering and long positions are being reopened. However, a remarkable divergence starts after April 12. As the price gradually declines, open interest increases again from $25.9 billion to $26.5 billion. This divergence suggests that position openings continued while the price was declining, suggesting a potential squeeze or high volatility en the market. As a result, this movement en open interest suggests that market participants are taking aggressive positions en the short term. The mismatch between price and open interest suggests caution, especially en leveraged trading. If open interest continues to increase before the direction of the price is clear, it may pave the way for sudden liquidations and sharp movements.

Funding Rate

BTC-Funding-Rate

After a positive start to the week, the funding rate rose to 0.007% el April 9, indicating that long positions dominated the market. Such high funding ratios indicate that leveraged long positions are numerous and the market is moving en anticipation of upside. However, this also brings with it the risk of liquidation of over-accumulated long positions. As of April 10, funding ratios fell sharply. The rate fell as low as 0.004%, indicating that some of the long positions were closed or the market started to neutralize to some extent. Prices also moved downwards during this period. Between April 11-13, although the funding rate returned to positive territory, it was more balanced and flat compared to previous levels. This indicates that although the market started to open long positions again, it was not as aggressive as before. After April 14, a gradual decline en funding rates was observed. Especially el April 15, the rate dropped to around 0.001%, indicating that long positions en the market weakened and short positions started to be opened. This decline also coincided with a period of price pressure. On April 16th, although the funding rate showed a limited recovery, it is still far from the previous high levels. In general, this fluctuating course en funding rates indicates that the market has not formed a clear consensus el the direction, speculative long positions are decreasing and a cautious mood prevails. The decline, especially after the high funding rate levels, may indicate that the market is entering a correction process. Even if the price rebounds en the short term, the fact that funding rates remain under pressure suggests that investors are hesitant to re-open aggressive long positions.

Long & Short Liquidations

BTC reached the $86,500 level el April 9, rising as the negative atmosphere created por the tariffs between the US and China softened el the market after its decline el April 9. With this rise, a short position of 486.41 million dollars was liquidated last week. On the other hand, with the volatility during the week, a long position of 346 million dollars was liquidated.

Whale Activities

Whales Data

According to the data that attracted attention en the cryptocurrency market en the last 7 days, whale activity el the central exchange showed us that it used central exchanges at a standard level at the beginning of the process. Towards the middle of the process, this activity increased, but por the middle of the process, this rate was extremely low. When we look at the Exchange Whale Ratio metric, the ratio of whales using centralized exchanges at the beginning of the 7-day period was 0.368. When this ratio is above 0.350, it usually means that whales use centralized exchanges frequently. This measurement increased en the middle of the period, reaching 0.500 el April 11. This caused the price of Bitcoin to fall from around $79,000 to around $84,000. It’s possible to say that this price drop indicates that whales were using centralized exchanges to buy BTC. The lowest point en the process occurred el April 13 and was valued at 0.310. During this period, the volatility of the price was very low and BTC moved en a narrow band. At the time of writing, the value was 0.508, making it the busiest day for whales. At the same time, total BTC transfers increased por about 21% compared to last week, with 4,186,452 BTC moving. In parallel, whale activity shows that big investors are still en the market and that we are en a sharp correction during the bullish period.
