Liquidation History

Market-wide long/short liquidations and venue splits, ranked against a year of daily totals. A separate order sample reveals timing, cascades and the largest forced exits; its coverage is stated, never scaled up to the whole market.

What it does

Liquidation history for one coin's perpetuals: market-wide long/short liquidations (USD) in 4h buckets and the 24h split by venue, plus a minute-level timing sample of individual liquidation orders from venues that publish them with detected cascades (time, side, size, order count, price range) and the largest orders. The sample is a share of the market, stated per bucket, never scaled up. Use it to say WHEN and WHICH SIDE was forced out, instead of inferring liquidations from price and open interest: flat OI can hide heavy liquidations that new positions replaced. A 1y baseline ranks the trailing ~24h of longs and shorts against a year of daily totals (percentile, 'largest since' date, median day, the year's three largest days per side), so a figure can be called big or routine for this coin.

Call it

One API key works for MCP, REST and WebSocket; each call uses one unit. Agents without an account can pay per call with x402.

Sample response

A real response captured 2026-11-13. Interactive is the tool's MCP App rendering it, as Claude, ChatGPT and other MCP Apps hosts show it; here it is read-only. JSON is what REST and WebSocket return, and the structuredContent of an MCP call (trimmed for length), with generatedAt for freshness. Text is the report an MCP client hands to a model.
