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.

Latest
- No recent Q liquidations.
From the public liquidation feeds of Binance, Bybit, Bitget, Gate, HTX and Aster. KuCoin and MEXC do not publish liquidations, so Q perps there are not counted.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 Q numbers
Q 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 Q 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.
Q open interest
Open interest is the USD value of all open Q 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.
Q 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.
Q long/short ratio
The share of traders long versus short on Q 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 Q long/short ratio page.
Q volume spikes
A spike is a minute where one Q 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.
