How it is scored
- We checked 11 liquidation map and heatmap tools on 4 October 2026. None published how often its levels met real liquidations.
- The harder test is still running: we wrote down the pass and fail rules for our liquidation rails before 13 October, and publish the result on or after 16 November, pass or fail. Read the registered test →
- Liquidations bunch up in big moves, which also reach more levels, so the time bar flatters the map. Binance’s reported feed is a lower bound, so dollar figures are a floor.
When Tardis.dev is the better choice
- You need 50+ exchanges or history back to 2019.
- You build your own simulation with your own fill model.
- You want raw full-depth data in your own pipeline.
Use both
Watch the move in EdgeDepth first. If your question needs more exchanges, older history or a custom fill model, build it on raw data.
