First -- I think TA is possible with longs/shorts charts there are active support and resistance points that may lead the btc price
second -- The top right chart is the ratio between longs and shorts... Today I've noticed increasing longs and decreasing shorts through this sideways period, today in-particular, there have been large moves in these charts and little corresponding moves in price. I'm not exactly sure how price can be reacting so little to sharply decreasing shorts and increasing longs but it is Bitfinex so I'm sure there's some shady shit going on in the background.
I don't see bitcoin having another major bull run for a couple years but I do think price has found a bottom. I don't see predictions for 1500 or 2000 as being viable levels that btc spends a prolonged amount of time. Hashrate is increasing again so this is a good sign that the mining purge is over.
Only way I see it possible that there is no move in price despite changing leveraged longs and shorts is a whale has an insane btc wall that he's buying into (convinces others to sell their coins so he ends up with net profit with price increase)
