4. Trading strategy based on liquidation data and Long/Short
Scenario 1: The market continues to decline
• With most liquidations occurring in Long orders and a high Short ratio, the downtrend may continue.
• Action:
• Consider opening a Short position when the price breaks important support or when the Short ratio continues to rise.
• Set stop-loss above the nearest resistance to protect the position.
Scenario 2: Potential Short squeeze
• If the Short ratio becomes too high, there is a possibility the market will create a Short squeeze, pushing prices up in the short term.
• Action:
• Consider opening a Long position if the price surpasses important resistance with high trading volume.
• Set stop-loss below the nearest support.
5. Notes when trading
• Monitor liquidation fluctuations: Liquidation spikes (especially from Long or Short orders) often lead to significant price fluctuations.
• Trading volume: If trading volume spikes along with a high Short ratio, a Short squeeze may occur.
• Risk management: Due to high market volatility, tight stop-loss levels should be used and reasonable capital management is necessary.
