Current market sentiment is holding strong with the long/short ratio sitting around 69% net long positions. What's worth noting is how this compares to our all-time high levels—back when we hit peak euphoria, we saw roughly 85% net long positioning, and here's the interesting part: there's an inverse correlation at play. Higher net long dominance actually tends to coincide with overbought conditions historically. So while 69% signals healthy bullish momentum, it's still below those extreme ATH levels where momentum typically faces resistance. Understanding this dynamic helps contextualize where we stand in the current cycle.

69% is still okay, much calmer compared to the crazy situation at 85%

69 is still a long way off, 85 is the real madness, history always loves to repeat itself😅

69% isn't crazy enough, 85% is the real life-or-death line

ngl the 69/85 comparison is giving me "we learned nothing from 2021" energy... empirically speaking, inverse correlations only matter if you actually *respect* the data, which most traders clearly don't. quick reminder that this exact positioning metric was flagged in multiple research papers as a lagging indicator lol. so yeah sure, "healthy bullish momentum" until it suddenly isn't.

69% is still okay, not as crazy as 85%, which means we still have room to grow...

69% of the bulls占比 honestly hasn't reached that dangerous euphoria stage; historical data shows that 85% is the real risk threshold. But the problem is, can we really trust this inverse correlation...?
