If the market has exactly the same number of long and short positions, why can the long/short ratio still differ from 1?
First, what it is: Binance’s official futures statistics for the account long/short ratio and top trader long/short ratio are available at a minimum interval of 5 minutes, and cover Binance USDⓈ-M perpetual contracts.
How it works: The account long/short ratio counts the number of accounts, making it a better reflection of retail trader sentiment. The top trader long/short ratio measures position size, giving a clearer picture of which side large investors are betting on.
Here’s a real-time price: $BTC is trading at 78042.01 (24h +0.82%).
After a loss, don’t rush to double your position to make it back—that often leads to even bigger losses.
