SPX Long/Short Ratio FAQ
Are the top SPX traders on Hyperliquid long or short right now?
As of 2026-10-18 17:37 UTC, 13.2% of open SPX notional held by profitable Hyperliquid traders is long ($109K long vs $720K short across 14 positions). Retail wallets are 22.2% long on SPX.
What is the SPX Taker Buy/Sell ratio?
Market buys divided by market sells in the SPX 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 SPX 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.
