XLM Smart Money Builds Position at $0.17 as Retail Sentiment Turns Bearish

XLM has been pinned at $0.17 for some time now, hugging the lower Bollinger Band and stochastics are deep in oversold territory.

The top traders are running net long against a retail crowd that's short, which is a divergence that demands attention.

Despite the negative sentiment from retail investors, who are leaning bearish with a 52.6% short position, smart money is quietly loading up at these lows.

The neutral funding rate of 0.0021% suggests measured and deliberate positioning by institutional accounts, rather than a crowded leveraged long.
