FAQ

What is the long/short ratio?

It is the ratio of accounts holding net-long vs net-short positions on Binance Futures. Above 1 = more longs; below 1 = more shorts.

How do traders use the long/short ratio?

Mostly contrarian: extreme crowding on one side historically marks poor risk/reward for the crowd, especially combined with funding extremes.
