Crypto

Long/short account ratio for a crypto asset

Changed on

Long/short account ratio of the asset's perpetual futures: the share of accounts holding a net long position against those holding a net short one, averaged across venues with equal weight. The last point is the current reading. A positioning signal, not a measure of position size.
