Bitcoin Open Interest [SAKANE]

How it works

The Bitcoin Open Interest [SAKANE] indicator synthesizes open interest data from CME and Binance derivatives exchanges by combining multiple contract series to eliminate rollover noise. It creates a synthetic open interest metric that allows traders to track capital flows with high accuracy across different timeframes.

This multi-dimensional approach provides a comprehensive view of market capital dynamics, revealing underlying trends that traditional price-based analysis might miss.
