Liquidations are reported venue snapshots; orders a venue left out are not rebuilt.

Exact definitions
  • Replay window: 2026-09-11T10:00:28.265Z to 2026-09-11T18:00:28.265Z.
  • Recorded baseline: $2,468.38. High: $2,666. End: $2,565.31.
  • 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.
