DUKASCOPY的官方网站是这么描述的:
“The Index is based on transaction flow information and is designed to show long and short ratio in the most popular currency pairs. The percentage number of the ratio is simply the amount of longs or shorts in the overall amount of opened positions transacted in SWFX marketplace.”
从字面上理解,如果目前市场上某货币对买入(BUY)比率超过卖出(SELL)比率,即目前市场上持有多头头寸的比例要超过空头头寸。那为什么市场行情是反方向呢?
我个人的理解是:因为在外汇市场,银行(BANK)做为一个群体是所有其他市场参与者的对手。从银行交易员的角度,当然是要争取盈利。所以 他们做交易时肯定也参考了自己对市场的看法。显然,大部分投资者不具备职业杀手的眼光。
