What is Open Interest and how can I trade using this indicator?

Open Interest (OI) is the number of open futures contracts held by traders in active positions. The higher the value the Higher the number of open positions which indicates an increase in interest by traders in the asset.

If OI is increasing an equal number of longs and short positions are being opened.

If OI Decreases both longs and shorts are exiting the market.
