How these numbers are measured

Peak and net moves start from the recorded baseline, which can differ from the replay's first price.

Liquidations are reported venue snapshots; orders a venue left out are not rebuilt.

Exact definitions
  • Replay window: 2026-09-17T21:59:00.000Z to 2026-09-18T11:28:00.000Z.
  • Recorded baseline: $0.2006. High: $0.2175. End: $0.2132.
  • Detected Sep 18, 2026 · 02:18 UTC. Episode baseline $0.2006 at Sep 17, 2026 · 21:59 UTC.
  • The short squeeze label describes the detected event class, so a later reversal changes the net move without silently changing the classification.
  • Price-extreme and wick times mark the source candle, not the exact tick.
