Indicator Notes | $BTC | Large Traders’ Long/Short Position Ratio: 1.62 | Long 61.8% / Short 38.2%
First, a definition: Compared with a single reading, the direction in which the large traders’ long/short ratio is moving is usually more informative. Whether large traders are adding to or reducing their long positions tells you more than the size of the ratio.
How to read it: Some people use the account long/short ratio as a contrarian signal, but that’s just one convention—and it doesn’t always work.
Leave enough room when using leverage; don’t let a single wick knock you out of a position.
