Large whales lean short on BTC.
The biggest wall of liquidations sits well below the price: if price fell that far, those longs would be forced to sell. Retail sits on the other side.

Over 7 days
Funding moved about 0.19% of a position’s value from longs to shorts. At today’s rate, the tracked whales here receive about $153K a day.
How to read this
Shows: how much money is open in this market, the part tracked whales hold, and what holding a position costs or earns.
Read it: A growing whale part means whale money gathers here faster than everyone else’s. Funding above zero means longs pay shorts every hour, because more money wants to be long.
Won’t show: what other exchanges hold, or where the price goes next.
About the data: The whale share of older days is reconstructed from the Hyperliquid blockchain with today’s track records, so it can differ a little from what the radar showed on the day.
No open interest was recorded on 25 Oct. The lines break there.
Liquidations
Whale longs pile up at $71.1K.
A rise would force out more whale money than a fall. The biggest wall gathers 3 whales.
Point at a price, tap it or use the arrow keys: the line says what would be forced out from the price to there, and whose it is.
One whale position at its liquidation price: length is its money, strength its track recordMoney from the price outward, its own scaleLongShort
Within 10%
If BTC falls 10%, $26.6M of whale longs would be forced to sell. If it rises 10%, $54.5M of whale shorts would be forced to buy.
How to read this
Shows: where tracked whale positions would be forced out, 20% either side of the price, by the money at each level.
Read it: The longer a block, the more money would be forced out at that price. The nearer it sits to the price line, the smaller the move that reaches it.
Won’t show: whether the price gets there. A liquidation price holds for the account as it stands and moves when the whale adds margin or changes leverage.
Exits
Whales put $434M into BTC in the last 24 hours and took $430M out.

How to read this
Shows: whale moves on the price at the moment they happened, and the same money added up per hour below.
Read it: A dot and its bar are the same money. Moves read differently before a rise, during a fall and after it.
Won’t show: why a whale moved. A close can take a profit, cut a loss or end a hedge.
