SPX6900 (SPX) price slides down by nearly 5%, trading around $0.98 at the time of writing on Tuesday after facing rejection from a previously broken trendline. The derivatives data projects a bearish sentiment, with SPX’s Open Interest (OI) falling and bearish bets rising among traders. The technical side further supports a bearish outlook, suggesting that SPX6900 could extend its decline toward the $0.81 level in the upcoming days.
Coinglass’s futures Open Interest for the SPX meme coin drops to $9.94 million on Tuesday, compared to $18.96 million on October 7. This drop in OI, constantly falling since July, signals waning investor participation and reinforces a weakening market sentiment for the SPX meme coin.
