Trader sentiment in Shiba Inu derivatives market has done a complete 180 over the past week. Net positions \u2014 which sat at around -200 million just days ago, reflecting a market tilted toward short bets \u2014 have swung to more than +400 million in net longs as of May 11. That kind of shift in a short window is not common.<\/p>\n

From Short To Long: A Full Reversal<\/h2>\n

The turnaround began around May 6, when net positions started climbing out of negative territory. By May 9, the indicator had crossed into positive ground, and it kept climbing.<\/p>\n

According to market watcher CW, buying pressure has grown sharply and is now dominating the market. \u201cThe upward momentum<\/a> of $SHIB is increasing explosively,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u2014 CW (@CW8900) May 10, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

That momentum shows up clearly on the price chart. SHIB<\/a> has been rising steadily from the $0.00000615 range, forming a pattern of higher lows and higher highs since May 10 \u2014 a sign that buyers have held control without the market getting sloppy or erratic. The price reached above $0.00000660 by May 11, a gain of roughly 6.50% over the past week.<\/p>\n

Open Interest Climbs Past 6 Billion<\/h2>\n

The derivatives market is also pulling in fresh participants. Open Interest<\/a> \u2014 which tracks the total value of outstanding contracts \u2014 rose from just above 5 billion on May 5 to over 6 billion at the time of reporting. That increase suggests traders are opening new positions rather than simply closing old ones.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When prices rise alongside growing Open Interest, it typically points to sustained demand rather than a technical bounce driven by short sellers getting squeezed out. Reports indicate that this combination is what analysts often look for when assessing whether a rally has legs.<\/p>\n

Leverage Cuts Both Ways<\/p>\n

Still, the same buildup that has driven prices higher carries risk. With Open Interest elevated and long positions stacked up, a slowdown in price movement could set off a chain of forced liquidations. If SHIB struggles to push higher while leverage stays elevated, a quick drop becomes more likely \u2014 even if the broader direction has not changed.<\/p>\n

For the upside to continue, reports say SHIB needs to hold above the $0.00000665 to $0.00000670 range. That zone now acts as a key level. If buyers defend it, the next leg higher remains on the table. If they don\u2019t, the market may correct sharply before finding its footing again.<\/p>\n
