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: 2026-10-16T17:30:00.000Z to 2026-10-18T17:30:00.000Z.
  • Recorded baseline: $1.8328. High: $2.6888. End: $2.2708.
  • Detected Oct 14, 2026 · 03:33 UTC. Episode baseline $1.6825 at Oct 11, 2026 · 17:30 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.
