Not to forget: the longs are extremely high, too (as they have been traditionally).
Ratio of longs to shorts is: 25860000 USD / 28940 BTC = 893 USD/BTC.
However, ratio of delta in last 24 hours is: (25860000 - 25660000 USD) / (28940 - 27600 BTC) = 149 USD/BTC

Odds are good that the price will go up.
well what goes down must come up lol, at the moment it would be suicidal for these shorters who are pushing down at the current range
Currently the graphs are looking realtively ok for a short pump as volumes are increasing and capital is flowing Lol.. is the volume during the short pump increasing for you? https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/bitfinex/btcusd
It's decreasing actually. It only increases when ever there's lot s of people selling off.
Expect those shorts to get squeezed.
Not unless it's a dead cat bounce (again)... Which has become a pattern of late. Maybe this predictability made the shorts bet high this time?
Bastards. I knew they were just waiting for a better price.
I don't know what is the reason but the sentiment is strong this time round as traders are putting on high expectations for the price to fall in weeks to come. I try not to think negatively but usually what is saw here is normally the natural buildup towards the upcoming price dump.
Yea ~215 was the bottom of the dump. Going up since and the shorters not buying back now will be squeezed in a couple of days. Happy trading!

up in the sense of a cat bounce like last time with the 300 peak? the sub-trend seems one pump and then one dump, while the general trend seems a small correction toward the bottom(cause by the fact that the dump is stronger than the pump in the end...), at least in this despair phase, in the future there could be a reversal if something good will happen.
Odds are good that the price will go up.
So what predication we can make will the price raise or going to get down
Alot of the shorts are also mining farms that sell un-mined BTC ahead of time to protect their investment against a price crash.
I am not verse with various financial instruments. Can u plz explain in short what are these Shorts, Futures are ?
It means people have borrowed and sold on the market a total of 28531.03 bitcoins hoping to buy them back at a cheaper rate and take profits. It also means these bitcoins will have to be bought back on the market at some point.
What is that likely to result in, a crash or a pump?
