Interpretation matrix
| Price | Open interest | Typical interpretation | What it does not prove |
|---|---|---|---|
| ↑ | ↑ | New leveraged exposure is expanding with price. | It does not identify whether new longs or shorts will win. |
| ↑ | ↓ | Positions are closing; short covering may contribute. | It does not prove the move must reverse. |
| ↓ | ↑ | New exposure is building into weakness. | It does not prove the new exposure is net short. |
| ↓ | ↓ | Leverage is leaving; long closing may contribute. | It does not prove selling pressure is exhausted. |
Use price, OI and funding together
Open interest measures outstanding positioning, not bullish or bearish direction. Price, funding, executed order flow and liquidation activity are separate contextual observations, and venue-specific contract units and update intervals can differ.
Important: TradingHub provides informational tools and scenario estimates, not financial advice. Verify fees, margin rules, availability and current terms with the relevant venue before acting.
Derivatives data may be delayed, incomplete or venue-specific. Liquidation, funding and open-interest tools are analytical context, not trading signals. Risk Disclaimer
