Bybit: bitcoin buy-to-sell ratio tops 25
- —A ratio above 25 means $25 of aggressive buying for every $1 of selling
- —Previous peaks: 24.26 in September 2025, 30.3 in January 2026, 20.86 in July 2026
- —Values above 10-20 are already considered extreme
- —A one-sided position raises the risk of a liquidation cascade if the price falls
Why it matters: An extreme skew toward longs on the largest derivatives venue raises the risk of sharp volatility and liquidations if the price moves against the crowd.
