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.

- Recorded baseline: $10.028. High: $10.064. End: $10.037.
- Detected Oct 15, 2026 · 02:36 UTC. Episode baseline $10.028 at Oct 14, 2026 · 23:13 UTC.
- The liquidation cascade label describes the detected event class, so a later reversal changes the net move without silently changing the classification.
