Share of longs; changes in percentage points (pp). Accounts = share of accounts with a net long position; top trader accounts = the same for the exchange's top traders (Binance: top 20% by margin); top trader positions = share of their combined position that is long; top traders vs accounts = top trader positions long minus accounts long, in pp (negative: the big traders are less long than the crowd); taker buys = share of the last 5 minutes' taker volume that bought. New points every 5 minutes; 24h history backfilled from the exchanges. Gate, Bitget and HTX are tracked for the top 50 coins.

About the A long/short ratio

What is the A long/short ratio?

The number of traders long divided by the number short on A perpetuals. Binance accounts: the share of accounts with an open position whose net position is long. Binance top traders: the share of the combined position of the top 20% of Binance futures users by margin that is long. Bybit accounts: the share of users holding a long. A share of 60% long is a ratio of 1.50.

How to read it for A

Account ratios count people, not money, and retail accounts lean long most of the time, so the level alone says little. Look at changes (the crowd piling in or out) and at divergence between top traders and all accounts. Some traders fade extreme readings, since a crowded side can be squeezed, but that often fails. Not financial advice.

How often it updates

New observations are fetched every 5 minutes, with available 24-hour history backfilled from the exchanges. Coverage varies by exchange and series; missing current observations can reflect absent feed coverage, delays or expired readings. Compare all coins.
