A dash means pending or unavailable; n counts measured outcomes, including zero moves. Small samples are noisy, and past moves are not a prediction.

About the CL volume spikes
What is a CL volume spike?
A minute in which one CL market (spot or perp, on Hyperliquid and Bybit) trades at least 4× its normal minute volume, where normal is the median of the previous hour, with a size floor ($30K spot, $75K perps) so thin trading doesn't count.
How to read it
Buy % is the share of taker buys in the minute: 60% or more is a buy-side spike, 40% or less sell-side. The +5m / +15m / +1h columns show what price did afterwards on the same market, and the table above averages them. Spikes at the same time on several exchanges carry more weight than one venue alone.
Is this a trading signal?
No. It is a record of unusual activity and what followed. Averages over a handful of spikes are noisy, and the list only holds the most recent spikes. Not financial advice. See live spikes for every coin.
