HYPE Long/Short Ratio FAQ

Are the top HYPE traders on Hyperliquid long or short right now?

As of 2026-10-18 17:37 UTC, 33.9% of open HYPE notional held by profitable Hyperliquid traders is long ($29.6M long vs $57.8M short across 46 positions). Retail wallets are 27.1% long on HYPE.

What is the HYPE Taker Buy/Sell ratio?

Market buys divided by market sells in the HYPE perp over the window. Above 1 means aggressive buying dominated; below 1, aggressive selling. It reflects short-term flow, not positioning.

What do Retail, Whale Account and Whale Position mean?

Retail counts every tracked wallet with an open HYPE position once, by net side. Whale Account does the same for wallets with $1M+ equity; Whale Position weighs those wallets by open notional. Smart Money weighs wallets with $10,000+ verified lifetime profit by open notional.

Why doesn't a high ratio mean more money is long?

On a derivatives exchange each long is matched by a short of the same size. A ratio above 1 means more accounts (or more capital within one group) sit long than short — the counterparty capital is on the other side, often concentrated in fewer, larger hands.
