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: 2026-10-06T07:55:00.000Z to 2026-10-07T09:33:00.000Z.
  • Recorded baseline: $0.8247. High: $0.8562. End: $0.7659.
  • Detected Oct 7, 2026 · 02:09 UTC. Episode baseline $0.8247 at Oct 6, 2026 · 07:55 UTC.
  • The liquidation cascade 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.
