How to read it. Longs and shorts are the totals of every open margin position on Bitfinex's BTC pair, in BTC; the lower pane of each chart is the BTC price on Bitfinex. Ranges over 90 days show one point a day (the last hour of the UTC day). Margin positions are spot trades on borrowed funds, not futures, so they are not part of BTC open interest. Compare every pair on the Bitfinex longs vs shorts page and futures positioning on the long/short ratio page. Not a trading signal and not financial advice.
