  Yes, you can track the number of shorts and longs in BitMEX. One way to do this is by using the BitMEX API. By making API calls to the BitMEX server, you can retrieve data on the number of open positions for both shorts and longs. This data can be used to gauge market sentiment and make more informed trading decisions. There are also third-party tools and platforms that provide visualizations and analytics based on this data, making it easier to interpret and analyze. Keep in mind that the accuracy of this data may vary, so it's important to cross-reference with other sources.
