Coinglass reminds you that position signals are derived by comparing the latest "Net Long % " with the previous "Net Long % ". If net longs increase, the signal is "Net Longs Expand"; if net longs turn from negative to positive, the signal is "Position Reversal to Net Long." The "Net Long %" in the table represents the current difference between long percentage and short percentage; the "Net Long % (Previous)" indicates the net long data from the last update (typically the previous trading day) for comparison. A negative net long means long percentage short percentage. Based on comparisons between the latest net long % and the previous net long % (from the prior trading day), the position signals cover 13 possible scenarios, including "Net Longs Expand," "Net Longs Decrease," "Net Shorts Unchanged," and "Net Shorts Turn to Neutral," with only relevant signals displayed according to actual data comparisons—see the chart in this article. These position signals are for reference only and should not be used as trading advice.
