Buyers and sellers

Buy/Sell % shows the percentage of traders on each side. 70% buying means 7 out of 10 traders are buying.

Buyers: 70%. Sellers: 30%. This describes how tracked traders are positioned. A larger buying share does not mean price must rise.

The numbers in each pane title are for the latest candle. Move over the chart to read the values of any other candle.

Notice when many traders are on the same side. For example, 80% buying means far more buyers than sellers.

Many traders can stay on the same side for a long time. Read Buy/Sell % with liquidity and price. It does not predict the next move.
