Honestly, when I first started trading futures, I was really into watching the long/short ratio. Whenever I saw that a high percentage of traders were going long, I’d follow suit—and several times, a single wick stopped me out.
Over time, I came to understand that the long/short ratio reflects which side everyone is on, while the market often likes to move in the direction fewer people are positioned for.
Right now, the platform-wide account long/short ratio is 0.48 at $AKE , with more traders short. I’ll just use that as a reference.
