Bitfinex Long Vs Short script by @whalepoolbtc - https://whalepool.io

Tired of the mis information out there regarding people's analysis and understanding of the bitfinex long/short data - I create this script so people can better get an understanding of the numbers and what they mean.

It's not pretty, but it works.

Todo (someone else not me !)

If anyones feeling keen and enthusiastic, they could...

  • Put the tickers you want to fetch the data for into a dict/list, maybe build the list from an api query
  • Put in api requests into a function to handle/wait upon api limit errors
  • Query the coinmarketcap api, https://api.coinmarketcap.com/v1/ticker/?limit=0 and add another column of data for total supply/circulating supply and the % of the tickers long/short delta relative to the total circulating supply
  • Save the data hourly to mongo so it can be plotted at some point in the future over price etc
