How to read it, with examples

How to read it

$0 means none were reported in the recorded window. Unavailable means the value is missing, not zero.

Compare reported forced buying with long liquidations, price and open interest.

What it does not prove

The feed may omit liquidations. This is not a complete loss total or proof that short liquidations caused the move.

Use in Research

What this cannot see

Binance throttles liquidation publications, so these readings describe the observed feed and miss some liquidation records.

More on this limit

Count estimation is still under validation. It would require uncertainty, support and freshness checks, and would not recover hidden event times or validate a price-level heatmap or cascade forecast.
