Live condition · historical base rate

At least $5M liquidated in one hour

Observed liquidation notional over the trailing one-hour window is at least $5 million.

Firing now (provisional, current bucket)

What has happened when it held

Historically, when At least $5M liquidated in one hour held (137 occurrences in the scanned window, 135 with a computable 24h horizon), the market reached +5% within 24h in 38 of 135 (28.1) and drew down 10%+ in 6 of 135 (4.4). Maximum favorable (MFE) and maximum adverse (MAE) excursions, both computed forward.

121 of 137 (88.3%) reached +0% or more within 1 hour · smallest move size with matches, picked for you

Pick a window and a move size: how often did a move at least that big follow?

WINDOWMOVE SIZE

🔒 Measured after every match, never by keeping winners. 137 of the matches have a complete 1 hour forward.

What are MFE and MAE?

Why 72 hours can show fewer than 1 hour: a match too recent for a complete 72 hours is left out of that count entirely, even if it already reached the level within 1 hour. The two counts cover different sets of matches.

When they happened - one bar per UTC day, all 137 matches

About 4.4 a day, on 26 of 31 days: spread through the record rather than one event.

Where the next 30 minutes landed - 137 measured, 0 too recent

Forward 30-minute returns across 137 matches: close to an even split, which is what a coin flip looks like.

How to read a distribution

Upside reached · 24hThe most price moved up within 24h of each occurrence: a high-water mark, never a close. 135 with a complete 24h.

Drawdown · 24hThe worst price moved against within 24h of each occurrence: the deepest point, never the close. 135 with a complete 24h.

Versus baseline

Historically, when any eligible minute in the window (baseline) held (30,471,289 occurrences in the scanned window, 26,641,977 with a computable 24h horizon), the market reached +5% within 24h in 7,739,581 of 26,641,977 (29.1) and drew down 10%+ in 1,641,323 of 26,641,977 (6.2). Maximum favorable (MFE) and maximum adverse (MAE) excursions, both computed forward.

Same key, same bytes. This receipt reruns; it does not retell. When the record grows, the dataset revision changes and says so.

Re-run this yourself, over the API or from an AI agent

This is the exact search definition behind the receipt. Send it to the key-authed research API (or the MCP research tool) and compare the bytes: a cached rerun is free.

How to read this

Counts ship with denominators: occurrences across the eligible symbol-buckets scanned. A rate is over the occurrences with a computable horizon (present), never the total.
Absent is absent. When a feature was not warm at a minute, that bucket leaves the denominator and is reported; it is never coerced to zero.
This selects a setup, never its outcome. The grammar forbids filtering on what followed (OUTCOME_IN_PREDICATE), so the distribution below is over every occurrence, not a survivorship-picked subset.

Occurrences are observed examples in a selected archive, not a guarantee. Outcomes are computed forward from each anchor and are descriptive, never a filter and never a prediction. Nothing here is trading advice.
