Ahead of the release of U.S. inflation indicators, Bitcoin and Ether are showing modest price movements. In a market environment that responds sharply to macroeconomic shifts, taking a wait-and-see approach before indicator events like this is not unusual. Open interest (OI) in the futures market refers to open interest, and even judging from the current position sizes, it appears traders are waiting for a major change in direction. Since the market could move significantly depending on the inflation numbers, close attention should be paid to this week’s price action.
