LIQUIDATION CASCADES · FUTURES

The crowd has piled onto one side
and is paying funding for it

The screener looks for pairs where a position skew meets expensive funding: open interest climbing, price stalling, and the crowded side paying to hold. It is a reversal setup, not a prediction.

How to read it: Longs outnumber shorts three to one and pay 0.15% funding. The nearest stop cluster sits 3.2% lower — that is where price travels fastest if longs start closing.

Three situations the screener catches

Long squeeze

Longs outnumber shorts by 2× or more, funding is positive, open interest is climbing, price is flat → longs are paying for a position that is not moving.

Short squeeze

Shorts outnumber longs by 2× or more, funding is negative, open interest is climbing → fuel for a move up if price turns against the shorts.

Confidence floor

Setup score below your threshold — no alert. You only see cases where all four signs line up, not just one.

How it works

01

We read the positioning

Every 5 minutes we pull the long-to-short ratio for the most liquid pairs. Anything older than 15 minutes is not used — the screener stays quiet instead.

02

We combine four signs

Position skew, funding cost for the crowded side, hourly open-interest build, and whether price is stalling. Each contributes to a score from 0 to 100.

03

We send the numbers

The message carries the direction, the position ratio with its source exchange, funding, the setup score, and the nearest stop cluster.

What arrives when the screener fires

One firing, two shapes. The messenger gets the short form: pair, window, venue and numbers. The feed on the site lays the same coin out line by line and puts the breakdown underneath: where in the indicators the move happened, whether one coin moved or the whole market, what the premium on the Korean exchanges was doing, and whether an exchange announcement landed close in time.

The full card stays in the feed

The same numbers with labels, plus the alert breakdown in subsections — in a message it takes at most four lines, on a card it fits whole. A card can be starred, commented on, filtered by coin or screener, and come back to a week later.

  1. 1
    Coin, screener and time

    Which pair, which screener found it and how many minutes ago. If the move continues, cards do not pile up: repeats are merged into this one with a counter.

  2. 2
    What actually happened

    One line in words — exactly the one that goes to the messenger. The wording is shared, so comparing the message and the card you are reading the same thing.

  3. 3
    The numbers behind the firing

    The metrics the condition fired on and the ones next to them: change in price, open interest and volume, the funding rate, the long-to-short skew.

  4. 4
    Alert breakdown

    The layers a trader would check by hand anyway: the indicators at the moment of firing, the share of the market that moved the same way, the premium on the Korean exchanges and the nearest exchange announcement in time. Screeners carry different sets of layers — the example shows which ones this screener has.

  5. 5
    What you can do with a card

    Star it, leave a comment, add a reaction, open the coin, or collapse the feed by coin — to see which pair several screeners agreed on over the period.

Questions about liquidation cascades

Is a score of 78 out of 100 the probability of a cascade?

No. It is the weighted sum of four observable signs: position skew, funding cost, open-interest build, and a stalling price. There are no outcome statistics behind it, so calling it a probability would be wrong.

Where does the long-to-short ratio come from?

From public Binance data, and from Bybit for pairs Binance does not list. The source is always named in the message: positioning comes from one venue, while open interest, funding and price are read from your own exchanges.

What does "nearest stops" mean?

It is the 24-hour price extreme — the level where stops and liquidation orders usually cluster. It is not a cascade calculation: we have no liquidation heatmap, and deriving one from open interest without leverage data would be made up.

How often do alerts arrive?

At most once every 4 hours per pair. That is the window in which the setup plays out; repeating the same case sooner is noise.

READY-MADE PRESETS

Start from a preset

Long squeeze

Skew 2× · score from 65
Preset logic

Logic: only pairs where longs outnumber shorts by at least 2× — roughly 67% of participants against 33%. A score from 65 means about three of the four signs line up. Liquidity floors cut the thin pairs: $5M open interest, $10M turnover. One side only: if longs start closing, price goes down.

Apply preset

Short squeeze

Skew 1.5× · score from 55
Preset logic

Logic: the mirror of the preset above, with a softer floor. Shorts outnumber longs by at least 1.5× — roughly 60% against 40% — with a score from 55. $5M open interest, $10M turnover. If shorts start closing, price goes up: the fuel is already in place.

Apply preset

Tightest setups only

Skew 2× · score from 80
Preset logic

Logic: a 2× skew is roughly 67% of participants against 33%, and a score from 80 needs effectively all four signs at once. The floors are raised too: $10M open interest, $20M turnover. Both sides, but expect a handful of hits a week rather than a day — each one worth opening the chart for.

Apply preset

Early warning

Skew 1.8× · score from 60
Preset logic

Logic: a skew from 1.8× — roughly 64% against 36% — with a score from 60, where two or three signs are enough. Catches the skew while it is still building. Softer floors: $2M open interest, $5M turnover. Noticeably more hits, and some of them unwind with no move at all.
