The cryptocurrency FORM has surged over +30% within just 24 hours, with analysts describing the rapid rise as a short squeeze. This movement indicates increased leverage in the market, as traders react to the price fluctuations.
The rally commenced late Sunday evening and extended into the early hours of Monday, with the price oscillating dramatically between approximately $0.91 and peaking at around $1.47 before stabilizing in the mid-$1.30 range at the time of this report.

Trading platforms Binance and Bybit reported significant trading volumes, each exceeding hundreds of millions of dollars within a 24-hour timeframe.
Data from Coinalyze regarding derivatives showed a notable shift as funding rates turned positive and open interest nearly doubled, reaching $26 million. This surge illustrates that many traders have entered long positions, contributing to the upward momentum.
The funding rates were hovering around +0.01% every eight hours, further supporting the notion that aggressive buying from long positions drove this rally.

FORM is the native cryptocurrency of the Four project, which is hosted on the BNB Chain. This unique project amalgamates GameFi, an Initial Game Offering (IGO) launchpad, alongside meme-token utilities. Previously known as BinaryX (BNX), the project completed a rebranding to Four earlier this year, facilitated by Binance who managed the BNX to FORM token swap in March.
The significant price fluctuation observed in FORM follows the token hitting a fresh all-time low close to $0.91, underscoring how thin market liquidity can lead to sharp price movements.
A recent post on Binance Square remarked on Monday’s performance as a “+44% increase from the lows,” also identifying critical short-term price levels that bulls must maintain.
This price surge aligns with the characteristics of a squeeze pattern, in which short positions are compelled to close as the market price rises, consequently amplifying the price momentum.
The price rebound also emphasizes FORM’s historically volatile nature since its token swap. Given the continued liquidity challenges, the token remains vulnerable to pronounced fluctuations, making it uncertain whether Monday’s price spike indicates the beginning of a sustained trend or merely represents another squeeze.

FORM is now at the center of a burgeoning wave of market speculation, with indications suggesting a potential breakout following what traders refer to as a “short squeeze” setup.
This sentiment was echoed by Tryrex, a prominent crypto analyst, who notably changed his stance from bearish to bullish upon observing confirming price action aligned with his reversal strategy.
In his latest update, Tryrex pointed to FORM’s recovery from late September lows around $1.00 and its rise above $1.14, which he identified as an optimal entry point for long positions.
His trading strategy includes a stop-loss set at $1.0383 and a target profit around $2.29, with the flexibility to modify if market dynamics evolve quicker than anticipated.
“Price appears poised for a significant surge that may trigger the liquidation of late shorts,” he asserted, referencing a confirmation candle consistent with recognized squeeze patterns.
His analysis of the 8-hour chart reveals a steep decline throughout September, now followed by what could be the first robust recovery.
