What does the Pudgy Penguins data show?
1. The trend still points down
Price trades below its 50-day average and below its 200-day, with the two averages 17.20% apart. Market structure is still making higher highs and higher lows. The most recent daily candle pattern is three black crows. RSI (14) is 43.5.
2. Leverage is paying up to stay positioned
Perpetual funding runs at 36.12% annualised, so shorts are paying longs to keep their positions open. Funding is a crowding tax: the more one-sided the book, the more it costs to stay on that side, and the more likely the weakest hands there get squeezed out. Open interest stands at $3.8 M — that is the size of the leveraged book that has to be closed eventually.
3. Pudgy Penguins is parked in the lower third of its 90-day range
Pudgy Penguins is 7% of the way up its 90-day range, which runs from $0.005561 to $0.01187; over 30 days the market is +2.72%. The same headline number means something different at the top of a range than at the bottom — which is why position is worth naming.
