Hui Tong Finance reminds that the position signals are derived from the comparison of “net long %” latest and “net long %” previous data. An increase in net long indicates “net long expansion,” and a change from negative to positive net long indicates “position reversal to net long.” The “net long %” refers to the current “long proportion minus short proportion,” and “previous net long %” indicates the last update (usually the previous trading day). A negative net long means long proportion < short proportion; a positive net long means long proportion > short proportion. Based on the comparison of the latest net long % and the previous net long %, the “position signals” include 13 types such as “net long expansion, net long reduction, net short unchanged, net short turning to balanced,” etc. The actual data comparison results are displayed accordingly in the chart. These position signals are for reference only and not for trading decisions. Market price trends may conflict with position indicators, which could imply potential opportunities. Additionally, future price movements are influenced by complex factors, so traders should make their own judgments.
