BTC perpetuals
Usually provide the deepest public derivatives history in the model, but the map still cannot observe private entry prices or margin mode.

Estimated crypto liquidation map
Explore modeled BTC, ETH and SOL liquidation exposure as a time-price heatmap. Brighter horizontal bands indicate larger estimated liquidation concentrations while perpetual OHLC candles show how price moves through them.

FORWARD VALIDATION · LOCAL · COLLECTING NEW OBSERVATIONS
Modeled concentrations, not observed positions or liquidation orders. USD values are scenario ranges. The model uses public OI, price, volume, funding, volatility and observed liquidations; unavailable history is not fabricated. Methodology
BTC, ETH and SOL context
ETH perpetuals
Uses the same explicit leverage-cohort method with ETH-specific price, OI and venue observations.
SOL perpetuals
Uses SOL-specific contract normalization; lower depth can make cross-venue differences more visible.
What this heatmap plots
TradingHub’s liquidation heatmap models possible forced-close exposure from public OI, price, volume, funding, volatility and observed liquidation inputs. It does not receive every private position’s entry, leverage or collateral. Its horizontal axis is time, its vertical axis is price, and color shows relative modeled concentration. A brighter band is an estimate, not an order waiting to execute.
The liquidation tracker instead records reported forced closes that already occurred. An order-book liquidity map shows visible resting bids and asks that may be moved or cancelled. Do not read these three datasets as interchangeable.
What the colors cannot tell you
Brightness is relative to the selected scale, venues, cohorts and display threshold. Under adaptive scaling, similar colors in two views need not represent the same USD amount. The map’s USD values are scenario ranges, not confirmed liquidation orders.
A zone can fade when OI contracts, price crosses its projected level, observed events consume nearby modeled exposure or assumptions decay. A dark cell means little displayed model exposure under the selected settings; it does not prove there are no positions or no risk. Missing history is not a measured zero.
Why a band changes
The model reduces exposure as OI contracts, price crosses a projected level or observed liquidations consume nearby modeled exposure. Assumptions also decay: the implemented half-life is 8 hours in Fast, 18 hours in Balanced and 42 hours in Structural mode. A fading zone therefore does not by itself prove liquidation.
BTC, ETH and SOL use the same modeling rules and controls with their own normalized price, OI and venue inputs. Historical coverage and source availability can differ; unavailable history is not fabricated.
Read a modeled band before acting
Select the market and venue, then check historical OI coverage and the map’s quality labels. Keep the same leverage cohorts, intensity scale and display threshold when comparing views. The executed-liquidations overlay is separate observed evidence; switching it on does not turn modeled bands into actual positions.
At a hypothetical BTC price of $60,000, a band at $58,200 is 3% below price. It estimates possible long-liquidation concentration, not $58,200 orders or past forced closes. Follow the three-observation example and compare reported liquidations with OI coverage.
