Monitor market participation levels
Rising open interest during a price move confirms new positions are being established, suggesting conviction behind the trend.
Distinguish new positions from closures
Blue candles show new contracts opening while red candles indicate existing positions closing. This reveals whether moves are fresh or liquidation-driven.
Spot potential forced liquidations
Sharp drops in open interest during rapid price moves often signal cascading liquidations. Position accordingly during high-OI unwinds.
What do blue and red candles indicate?
Blue candles appear when open interest increases, indicating new positions being established. Red candles appear when open interest decreases, showing positions being closed. This visual display makes participation changes immediately visible.
What does rising open interest during a trend confirm?
When price moves in one direction and open interest rises simultaneously, new money is entering in support of the trend. A rally with increasing open interest signals fresh long positions, strengthening the bullish case.
Why is falling open interest during a trend a warning?
Decreasing open interest indicates traders are closing positions rather than opening new ones. This liquidation pattern often precedes trend exhaustion. Rising price with falling open interest suggests the advance is losing participants.
