What this is
Company stockValero Energy is one of the largest US refiners: it buys crude and sells petrol, diesel and jet fuel. It earns not on the price of oil but on the gap between crude and fuel — the crack spread — which can widen exactly when oil gets cheaper. What this shows: the share cannot be read as a bet on oil; refiners have strong quarters when fuel is expensive and crude is cheap. Here a tokenised version trades — outside US trading hours the price rests on our order book.

How to read this
- Funding is a payment between longs and shorts. A positive rate means longs pay shorts: the market is crowded long.
- The rate rank shows how unusual that rate is for this particular coin: 97 means above 97% of the last month, a rare skew. Without the rank the bare number says nothing — every coin has its own normal.
- Open interest is the money sitting in positions that are still open. Rising alongside price means new money entering; rising while price falls means shorts building up.
- The OI rank is measured in contracts rather than dollars: otherwise it would drift up with price alone and claim a record where nothing changed.
- NATR shows how much a coin moves relative to its own price. High NATR with high turnover is where today's action is.
