$ADA Air Force first takes a measure—who sits across from them? The whale position’s long-to-short ratio is nearing double: 65% are dead-long, and by account scope they’re even outpacing the entire market, heading close to 70%. Big money has welded the direction shut. The number of accounts has clearly dropped by a slice after seven hours, but actual positions haven’t budged at all—people are withdrawing, but the money doesn’t step back even half a step. That’s the hardest kind of confidence. Contract fees are also steady above zero. The longs are willing to pay to carry the order—so this setup, I’ll go long with my eyes closed.
