Margin-trading

Bitfinex BTC longs/total ratioRatio of bitfinex longs versus the total btc in positions. Maybe a good indicator of market sentiment. It allows you to see too where were people taking profit or closing positions. Remember that ratio going up doesn't necesarily mean more longs positions are being added. It could mean shorts are closing position massively. The conversely is also true. The rate above 0.5 doesn't necesarily bullish, though, and the indicator is "timeframe" agnostic. So take into account that there could be tons of longs positions that were opened since back before summer 2017, It seems to be too of positions opened at prices below 4.000$. That's why the average seems to be around 0.6. The blue lines indicates current ratio (or on close for past bars). The red line is the max ratio (higher shorts versus lowest longs).
