Bitfinex Long:Short Ratio 

Bitcoin / U.S. dollarBitstamp

Description

This is a simple indicator that creates a ratio of margin Long & Short positions on Bitfinex for the ticker you currently have selected. If the ticker you are looking at does not have margin positions on Bitfinex; it will error out - however when you select another ticker it automatically resets.

The indicator provides the following:
  • Histogram of the ratio of margin Longs to margin Shorts. + results (green) are higher longs; - results (red) are higher shorts. NOTE: A 1:1 ratio has been offset to a 0 cross for the benefit of the histogram
  • A simple moving average line (yellow) for quick reference of current margin trend. Length is adjustable viable input.
  • A plotted line (blue) of margin longs as a ratio to the SMA of Longs. Above 1 indicates acceleration of trend; below 1 indicates deceleration
  • A plotted line (orange) of margin shorts as a ratio to the SMA of Shorts. Above 1 indicates acceleration of trend; below 1 indicates deceleration


Ratio is based on the close position and is intended as reference only. Don't rely on this supplied information as a sole indication prior to making a trade.

Thanks!
Can I look for bearish\bullish divergences in relation to price action on this indicator, or it doesn't work like that here?
