What does the Costco data show?
1. MACD turned bullish
MACD flipped bullish: the fast average of price pulled above the slow one, which is the earliest of the trend signals we track and the noisiest. Market structure is sideways — no sequence of higher or lower swings. The most recent daily candle pattern is three black crows. RSI (14) is 46.7.
2. Leverage is paying up to stay positioned
Perpetual funding runs at 63.10% 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 $471 K — that is the size of the leveraged book that has to be closed eventually.
3. Costco is parked in the lower third of its 90-day range
Costco is 11% of the way up its 90-day range, which runs from $908.670 to $1,110.9; over 30 days the market is −1.54%. The same headline number means something different at the top of a range than at the bottom — which is why position is worth naming.
