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: 2026-10-19T23:27:00.000Z to 2026-10-21T19:23:00.000Z.
  • Recorded baseline: $0.001984. High: $0.005174. End: $0.004272.
  • Detected Oct 21, 2026 · 13:23 UTC. Episode baseline $0.001984 at Oct 19, 2026 · 23:27 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.
