What is the Long/Short Ratio?

The long/short ratio measures the percentage of BTC perpetual futures accounts that are positioned long versus short at any given moment. A ratio above 50% means more accounts are long than short; below 50% means shorts dominate.

All Accounts (globalLongShortAccountRatio) covers every Binance futures account with an open position. Top Traders (topLongShortPositionRatio) isolates the largest 20% of accounts by margin — often considered a proxy for "smart money" positioning. Divergences between the two can be informative.

When the crowd is heavily one-sided — either crowded long or crowded short — the risk of a squeeze (forced liquidations pushing price sharply against the crowded side) increases. This tool tracks that positioning in real time.
