Huitong Finance reminds you that position signals are derived by comparing the "Latest Net Long %" with the "Yesterday Net Long %" data. An increase in net longs signals an expansion of the net long position, while a change from negative to positive signals a reversal of the net long position. In the table, "Latest Net Long %" refers to the current "long position minus short position," while "Yesterday Net Long %" represents the last updated net long position (usually the previous trading day) for comparison purposes. A negative net long position indicates a lower long position than a short position. A positive net long position indicates a higher long position than a short position. Comparing the latest net long % with yesterday's net long % (the previous trading day's net long %) reveals 13 types of position signals, including an expansion of the net long position, a decrease in the net long position, no change in the net short position, and a shift to a long-short balance. Some of these signals are presented based on actual data comparison results. See the charts in this article for details. This position signal is for reference only and should not be used as a basis for trading. The current price trend may conflict with the position indicated. These conflicts may contain potential opportunities. At the same time, subsequent price trends are subject to complex influences from various factors, and traders must make their own decisions.
