Find which coin the entire market is on the wrong side of

When 6 out of 8 trader cohorts are max long on the same coin, someone is going to be wrong. This scans every major coin and tells you which one has the most lopsided positioning and how much open interest is behind it. The most crowded trade is usually the next one to blow up.

Copy and paste the following prompt into your AI of choice:

I want to find the most crowded trades on Hyperliquid right now - coins where positioning across multiple trader cohorts is extremely one-sided.

Pull from this endpoint

GET /position-metrics/coin/{coin}/segment/{segmentId}?start={1hr ago}&end={now}.

  • Segments to check (PnL-based): 8 (Money Printer), 9 (Smart Money), 10 (Degen Gambler), 11 (Bag Holder), 12 (Exit Liquidity), 13 (Liquidation Candidate), 14 (Fresh Meat), 15 (Giga-Rekt)

  • Coins: BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE, DOGE, LINK, AVAX, WIF, ARB, SUI, XRP

For every coin + segment combo:

  1. Calculate % long (longValue / totalValue)

  2. Flag as "crowded" if % long > 80% OR % long < 20% (extreme one-sidedness)

  3. Weight by total OI — a crowded $500M position matters more than a crowded $2M one

  4. Score each coin: how many segments are crowded on the same side? If 5 out of 8 segments are >75% long, that coin is a crowded long.

Show me a ranked table:

Coin | Crowding Score | Direction | Biggest Crowded Segment | Total OI at RiskSort by crowding score. The most crowded trade at the top. Also flag DISAGREEMENTS: if Smart Money is one way but 4+ other cohorts are the opposite, that's the highest-conviction signal.

Use ISO 8601 dates. Auto-refresh every 5 min.

What you will see

A ranked list of every coin showing which ones have the most traders piled on one side. The most lopsided trade is at the top. Refreshes every 5 minutes.

Why it helps you as a user

Crowded trades unwind fast. If everyone is long the same coin, you either get out early or you position for the snap. This tells you where that's building.
