Four events from a documented archive of 452 cascades across 46 markets, $1.720B in liquidation notional (as of 2026-08-19). Selected replays with full playback are at riskloom.ai/replay.
Signal lead = CRI threshold crossing to liquidation peak. Cascade start is marked
separately on every chart. Each event is reproducible from its underlying
liquidation record. Liquidation notional is atomic — the sum of per-minute
liquidations inside each cascade window. The archive total above is
deduplicated over distinct liquidation minutes; because detection windows can
overlap, adding up per-event figures gives a larger number than was actually
liquidated. Full archive at
riskloom.ai/replay.
What the signal reads
- 01Liquidation flow benchmarked per market
- 02Open-interest movement as evidence consistent with leverage reduction
- 03CVD alignment as directional flow confirmation
Calibrated per market. What is extreme for BTC is ordinary noise for a smaller name.
Auditability
Every documented cascade carries a source hash and the inputs that produced it.
CRI is a calibrated analytical measure. The event records, timestamps and
liquidation figures are traceable to the underlying source data.
