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: 2026-10-28T07:16:00.000Z to 2026-10-30T06:22:00.000Z.
  • Event window: 2026-10-28T07:16:00.000Z to 2026-10-31T01:03:00.000Z. The figures on this page cover the whole event; the replay was trimmed to the main stretch of the move.
  • Recorded baseline: $0.9961. High: $1.042. End: $0.9784.
  • Detected Oct 30, 2026 · 23:59 UTC. Episode baseline $0.9961 at Oct 28, 2026 · 07:16 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.
