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.

From the public liquidation feeds of Binance, Bybit, Gate, Bitget, Aster and HTX. MEXC, KuCoin and Hyperliquid do not publish liquidations, so INIT perps there are not counted. Binance, Bitget and Aster publish only a sample of liquidations (Binance at most one per symbol per second), so totals are a lower bound. A long liquidation is a forced sell; a short liquidation is a forced buy.
About the INIT numbers
INIT funding rate
Perpetual futures have no expiry, so exchanges keep their price close to spot with periodic funding payments between longs and shorts. A positive INIT funding rate means longs pay shorts (more demand for leveraged longs); negative means shorts pay longs. Rates here are converted to an 8-hour equivalent so exchanges with 1h, 4h and 8h intervals compare directly, and the headline figure is weighted by each exchange's open interest.
INIT open interest
Open interest is the USD value of all open INIT perpetual positions. Rising OI alongside a price move means new positions are opening; falling OI means positions are closing (including liquidations). OI changes are measured from 5-minute snapshots.
INIT liquidations
A liquidation is a leveraged position the exchange closed by force. Long liquidations are forced sells that hit when price drops; short liquidations are forced buys when price rises. The long/short split shows which side was caught.
INIT long/short ratio
The share of traders long versus short on INIT perpetuals. Accounts figures count each account once (the share with a net long position on Binance, or holding a long on Bybit); the Binance top traders figure is the share of the combined position of the top 20% of Binance traders by margin that is long. A ratio above 1 means more longs than shorts. Retail account ratios lean long most of the time, so changes and divergences say more than the level. See the INIT long/short ratio page.
INIT volume spikes
A spike is a minute where one INIT market traded at least 4× its normal minute volume, with a size floor. Buy % is the share of taker buys. The +5m / +15m / +1h columns show what price did afterwards. They are history, not a signal. Not financial advice.
