How to read this
Shows: the price of the market from two hours before the move to 45 minutes after it, played once.
Read it: The dot is the move, with the whale’s name and money beside it. Shorts stand above the line, longs below it, a liquidation is a ring on the line. The largest move is the one of $1M or more that moved the most money this day.
Won’t show: the whale’s other moves. Its page holds them.
Crypto
Whales lean short on BTC (59% of $1.49B in whale positions) and on HYPE (57% of $924M). The rest of Hyperliquid leans the other way: 62 against the whales' 25. Tracked whales lost $179M to liquidation in crypto in the last 24 hours, 96% of it longs.
TradFi
In TradFi, whales lean short on stocks (Tide 39), lean short on indices (Tide 40) and lean short on energy (Tide 33). The clearest lean among the main TradFi markets: Nvidia, 73% short of $225M. Tracked whales lost $10M to liquidation in TradFi in the last 24 hours, all of it longs.
Under water
39% of directional whale money is under water.
Over the last 31 daily closes, the share under water ran from 39% to 62%. 39% is the lowest in that span.
Money at a loss at today's price, counted like the Tide: directional whales only. Hedges and market makers stay out, because one leg of a hedge is always at a loss.
Near liquidation
Longs hold $103M of the money near liquidation, shorts $76.6M.
Over the last 31 daily closes the total ran from $12.9M to $383M.
Whale money within 5% of its liquidation price, every wallet counted. Longs there would be forced to sell into a fall, shorts to buy into a rise.
