CoinMarketCap reminds you that position signals are derived by comparing the latest “Net Long % ” with the previous “Net Long % “. If net long positions increase, the signal is “Net Long Expansion”; if net long positions change from negative to positive, the signal is “Position Reversal to Net Long,” and so on. In the table, “Net Long % Latest” refers to the current difference between long percentage and short percentage, while “Net Long % Previous Update” indicates the net long data from the last update (typically the previous trading day), for comparison purposes. A negative net long means long percentage short percentage. Based on comparisons between the latest net long % and the previous net long % (from the prior trading day), the position signals cover 13 possible scenarios, including “Net Long Expansion,” “Net Long Contraction,” “Net Short Unchanged,” and “Net Short Turns to Neutral,” among others—only the relevant signals corresponding to actual data comparisons are displayed in the chart below. These position signals are for reference only and should not be used as trading advice. Current price movements may contradict the position indicators; such contradictions may signal potential opportunities. However, future price movements are influenced by numerous complex factors, and traders must make their own decisions.
