Smart Money Squeezes WLD Price in Dead-Man's Compression

The price of WLD is currently stuck in a narrow trading range between $0.31 and $0.33, with spot sellers dominating the market.

However, despite the technical indicators suggesting a bearish trend, smart-money traders are accumulating through futures, which could lead to a sharp short-squeeze dynamic if spot selling exhausts itself.

The positioning data shows that top traders on Binance Futures are 61.6% long, with retail investors also leaning towards the long side at a ratio of 58% to 42%. Meanwhile, open interest has jumped 6.49% in the last 24 hours, indicating new money is flowing into the market.

The funding rate is essentially flat-to-slightly-negative, which means the market isn't paying a premium for longs, making it a healthier base for a squeeze.
