Trading strategy based on liquidation data and Long/Short
Scenario 1: The market continues to decline
• With the majority of liquidations occurring in Long orders and a high Short ratio, the downward trend may continue.
• Action:
• Consider opening a Short order when the price breaks through important support or when the Short ratio continues to rise.
• Set the stop loss level at the nearest resistance level to protect the position.
Scenario 2: Short squeeze potential
• If the Short ratio becomes too high, there is a possibility that the market will create a Short squeeze, pushing the price up in the short term.
• Action:
• Consider opening a Long position if the price surpasses the important resistance with large trading volume.
• Set stop loss below the nearest support.
Notes when trading
• Tracking liquidation fluctuations: Liquidation fluctuations (especially from Long or Short orders) often lead to significant price fluctuations.
• Trading volume: If the trading volume increases dramatically along with a high Short ratio, a Short squeeze may occur.
• Risk management: Due to the high market volatility, it is necessary to use tight stop-loss levels and proper capital management.
