$48.0K of leveraged AMZN positions were liquidated on Hyperliquid over the latest complete day — 24 liquidation events, 0% of everything liquidated that day. Most of it was shorts being force-closed, which points to a move up catching leveraged positions on the wrong side. Every number here comes from on-chain settled fills — not an estimate reconstructed from exchange order books.

How to read the liquidation heatmap
The map at the top plots price and time against liquidation density. Each horizontal band marks a price level where leveraged positions would be force-closed; the brighter the band, the more notional is at risk there. Bands persist until price trades through them — a band that ends against a candle means those positions were flushed.
Clusters act like magnets. A dense band above or below the current price is forced buying or selling waiting to happen: when price reaches it, liquidations execute at market and push price further in the same direction. The right-hand profile sums this up — how much would be liquidated on a move up (shorts) or down (longs) from the current price.
The threshold slider clips the colour scale at a percentile: at 0.85 everything above the 85th percentile of density burns at full brightness, which makes the big clusters stand out. Candles and the daily totals below the map are settled on-chain data; the heat bands are currently a model estimate built from price and volume at typical leverage tiers (100×, 50×, 25×, 10×, 5×) — the same approach other heatmaps use. Unlike them, Hyperliquid settles everything on-chain, so the next step here is replacing the estimate with actual liquidation prices of real wallets.
How to read the daily numbers
A liquidation happens when a leveraged position can no longer cover its margin and the exchange closes it at market. The number above is the notional value of positions force-closed in the last complete day — not trader losses, which are smaller and depend on entry price.
Longs and shorts tell opposite stories. Longs get liquidated when price falls; shorts when it rises. A day dominated by short liquidations usually means a sharp rally caught bearish positioning offside — and the forced buying pushes price further up, which is why these events cluster.
Why Hyperliquid numbers differ from centralised exchanges. On a CEX, liquidation data is whatever the venue chooses to publish, and most heatmaps you find elsewhere are estimates reconstructed from order books. Hyperliquid settles every fill on-chain, so these totals are counted from settled trades rather than modelled. The trade-off: this covers Hyperliquid only, not the whole market.

FAQ
How much was liquidated on Hyperliquid in the last 24 hours?
$48.0K of AMZN liquidated on Hyperliquid on 2026-11-02 (UTC day). 24 liquidation events hit 14 wallets.
What is a liquidation heatmap?
A chart that overlays price with the levels where leveraged positions get force-closed. Bright bands are clusters of liquidation liquidity: price is often drawn toward them, because crossing a cluster triggers forced market orders that fuel the move. Traders use the map to spot likely squeeze targets and stop-hunt zones before they happen.
Is the heatmap real data or an estimate?
The candles and every daily total on this page are settled on-chain fills. The heat bands are currently an estimate modelled from price and volume at typical leverage tiers — the same method used elsewhere. Because Hyperliquid settles on-chain, we are replacing that model with the actual liquidation prices of real tracked wallets, which no order-book estimate can provide.
What does it mean when shorts are liquidated?
Short positions are force-closed when price rises against them. Closing a short means buying back, so a wave of short liquidations adds buying pressure and can accelerate a rally — a short squeeze. The reverse is true for longs.
Is this real data or an estimate?
Real. Every Hyperliquid trade settles on-chain, so these totals come from settled fills flagged as liquidations. Most liquidation heatmaps published elsewhere are estimates modelled from centralised-exchange order books.
Does this cover the whole crypto market?
No — Hyperliquid only. Cross-exchange totals published elsewhere include Binance, Bybit and others, so they are much larger. The advantage here is that the underlying data is verifiable rather than self-reported.
How often is it updated?
The aggregate is rebuilt daily from the on-chain fill stream. The page shows the latest complete day; the timestamp under the headline says exactly which.
