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: 2026-10-23T13:07:00.000Z to 2026-10-25T21:23:00.000Z.
  • Recorded baseline: $0.20814. High: $0.21329. End: $0.17093.
  • Detected Oct 25, 2026 · 15:23 UTC. Episode baseline $0.2081 at Oct 23, 2026 · 13:07 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.
