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: 2026-10-04T07:52:00.000Z to 2026-10-06T10:35:00.000Z.
  • Recorded baseline: $0.11559. High: $0.2488. End: $0.17483.
  • Detected Oct 4, 2026 · 16:35 UTC. Episode baseline $0.1156 at Oct 4, 2026 · 07:52 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.
