How to read it. Side is the taker's: a buy lifted the ask, a sell hit the bid. Size is one taker order in USD, however many fills it had. × threshold is that size divided by its market's large-order threshold at the time.

Only venues whose public trade feeds the engine groups per taker order are covered: currently Hyperliquid and Bybit (perps and Bybit spot, shown as separate markets). "Large" is relative to each market's own recent orders, so a large order on a small coin can be far smaller than one on BTC. Several large orders on the same market, side and minute are one row: its size is the largest of them, and the minute's total and order count are shown under it. Not financial advice.

BTC large trades FAQ

What counts as a large trade?

A single taker order (a market order that took liquidity, however many fills it had) in the top 0.05% of its own market's recent orders by USD size, and at least $100K on a perp or $50K on a spot market. Each market has its own threshold, so the table shows how many times that threshold each order was.

Why only Hyperliquid and Bybit?

Their public trade feeds let the scanner put the fills of one taker order back together. Other exchanges publish fills in a way that splits one big order into many small prints, so their large orders can't be told apart from a burst of small ones.

Is a buy here a whale going long?

A buy is a taker buying (lifting the ask), which can open a long or close a short; a sell can open a short or close a long. Liquidations also arrive as taker orders. The side shows who crossed the spread, not the trader's intent. Nothing here is financial advice.
