RSI vs BITFINEX BTC Longs/Shorts Margin Ratio Percentage Rank

7 juin 2022

This indicator plots the RSI of the current token with a color based on percentage rank of the RSI of BITFINEX:BTCUSDLONGS divided by BITFINEX:BTCUSDSHORTS, with a plot of the moving average of the RSI. It can optionally plot the RSI in white and the ratio RSI in color, or the ratio as background color. It can also plot the raw ratio rather than the percentage rank if selected.

I was interested in the ratio of BITFINEX:BTCUSDLONGS to BITFINEX:BTCUSDSHORTS as a measure of market sentiment and how that sentiment would magnify RSI changes. The volatility of the BTCUSDLONGS : BTCUSDSHORTS ratio was too low to get a good read, using a percent rank of the RSI of the ratio made the results more visible.

This indicator should be used on a BTC chart.

The colors can make it had to see the MA in the background or "ratio and RSI" modes, so added an option to have different color transparency options above / below the MA.
Updated the chart to show all three color options available in the indicator.

• When I released "RSI vs Longs/Shorts Margin Ratio Percentage Rank" I thought I'd let this BTC only indicator die off, but I then thought about allowing all of the BITFINEX:BTCxxxLONGS and BITFINEX:BTCxxxSHORTS pairs to be included in the one ratio. So this indicator now has the option to add the LONGS and SHORTS pairs for USD, UST, EUR, EUT, JPY and GBP. The second indicator on the chart shows the USD and UST ratios, while the third indicator shows the EUR, EUT, JPY and GBP ratios. This appears to be showing regional variations to BTC market sentiment.
• Added RBlG spectrum, I like Red Black Green spectrum as a background color, as seen in the bottom indicator on the chart.
• Moved to a drop down list for plot style.
• Added an option to plot the top and bottom lines.
