Understanding Open Interest

Open interest (OI) represents the total number of outstanding derivative contracts that have not been settled. In perpetual futures, every position has both a buyer (long) and a seller (short), so OI counts one side of the pair. When a new long and short position are opened, OI increases. When a position is closed, OI decreases.

For ASTER (ASTER), open interest is a key indicator of market participation and conviction. Rising OI means new money is entering the market, while falling OI means positions are being closed. The direction of OI change combined with price movement provides important signals about trend strength and potential reversals.

The OI/Volume ratio is particularly useful. A high ratio (above 1x) indicates that traders are holding positions rather than day trading, suggesting conviction in the current trend. A low ratio (below 0.5x) suggests more speculative, short-term activity. The current ASTER OI/Volume ratio of 6.16x indicates position holding behavior with strong conviction.
