Open interest against the circulating float

Also shown as OI vs circulating float

Open interest measured against the asset's circulating supply.

Full definition and limits

Open interest measured against the asset's circulating supply: open contracts divided by the circulating float, which is the same quantity as USD open interest over market cap. 1.0 is the cross-over, where more of the asset is held in open perpetual positions than exists in circulation. A level rather than a change, and the threshold that matters is absolute, which is why there is no percentile companion. Supply is one provider observation a day read as-of within three days; assets the provider does not map, such as the tokenised stock and index perps, read Absent rather than zero.
