Open DepthMethod. Price, volume and order book from perpetual futures. Positioning shows where public open positions would be liquidated, by price; it is an estimate from part of the market's positions. A wall is "held" when trades hit it and price turned, "pulled" when it vanished within seconds with almost nothing traded, "eaten" when most of it was traded away. Times are New York time (ET), with UTC in brackets. Updated 30 Oct 4:09 PM ET (20:09 UTC).
