I've been observing something interesting in Bitcoin for a while. The funding rate on futures has dropped to its lowest point in three months, and that usually precedes strong moves.



When the funding rate drops like this, it means there are many traders holding short positions. Historically, these low levels of funding tend to end in a pretty violent short squeeze. It's as if the market is building tension to explode at any moment.

I'm not saying it will happen tomorrow, but with BTC moving sideways and this very low funding structure, the next moves could be interesting. The funding rate is one of those indicators that not everyone monitors, but when it behaves like this, it's worth paying attention.
