# Liquidations
Liquidated long and short positions per bar, showing where forced selling or buying hit the market.

## How to read it

- Long liquidations come from falling price; short liquidations from rising price.
- Large clusters often mark capitulation or squeeze extremes.
- Compare with OI: liquidations with a sharp OI drop mean leverage is being flushed.

## Good to know

- Drawn in its own pane below the chart.
- Hyperliquid does not publish liquidations, so the pane stays empty there.
