About Long/Short Ratio

What is the IOST long/short ratio?

The IOST long/short ratio measures the balance of buying (long) versus selling (short) positions on perpetual futures, tracked by account count, position size, or active taker volume. A ratio of 2.0 means longs outnumber (or outsize) shorts two to one; 0.5 means the opposite. It's a key gauge of market sentiment and position crowding.

What does a high or low IOST long/short ratio mean?

A persistently high IOST long/short ratio suggests retail accounts are heavily long and positioning is crowded — a reversal can trigger cascading long liquidations. A low ratio signals short dominance. Extreme readings in either direction are often treated as a contrarian signal.

What is the current IOST long/short ratio?

As of now, the IOST account-ratio averages 0.8709 across 4 exchanges CoinBoss tracks, and positioning is short-dominant. This updates in real time — see the table above for the full per-exchange breakdown plus position and taker ratios.

Which exchange shows the most extreme IOST long/short ratio?

Right now okx shows the most extreme (furthest from 1.0) IOST long/short ratio among tracked exchanges, at 0.6200. Differences across exchanges mainly stem from user base composition and trading behavior — large divergences are often watched as a smart-money signal.
A ratio above 1 means longs dominate; below 1 means shorts dominate. Extreme retail-account ratios are often used as a contrarian indicator.
