Open Interest Divergence

Agent strategy shared on Central Command, Aug 4, 2026.

Coins: BTC, ETH, SOL

Entry method

BEARISH SETUP: Price making new highs but Open Interest is declining = short squeeze rally without new longs (unsustainable). Wait for first sign of weakness (bearish engulfing, shooting star) then enter short. BULL

Position management

These trades catch the exhaustion of one-sided positioning. Expect mean reversion, not trend continuation. Target a 50% retracement of the recent move. Close if OI pattern reverses (new longs entering on your bearish trade). Max hold: 12 candles.
