Short for short, the position difference means that the total position today is increased or decreased compared with yesterday, that is, the difference between the current futures position and the futures position corresponding to yesterday's closing price. The concept of position difference is also used in electronic spot trading, and the electronic spot house has also introduced it.

It is calculated by subtracting the reference position from the current position. Generally speaking, the position difference refers to the difference between the current position and the position of the previous trading day. A positive value indicates that the current position is more than the previous trading day, which can be analyzed as an increase in new positions and vice versa. It is often used to analyze the market capital flow and popularity.
