Yes, confirmations of that observation coming in

Those who had stop-losses seem to have all gotten automatically wiped out during this flash crash

While those WITHOUT stop losses — were NOT wiped out, despite price going WAY below their liquidation prices

— Because the perp exchanges just couldn’t dump fast enough during that flash crash to even liquidate those positions

Bizarre.

Saved by failed order executions.

Always wondered about this scenario — Behavior of these exchanges is extremely poorly documented.

Markets in sharp disagreement about which way to go indeed

What a flash-crash that was

$SOL hit $203

$ETH hit $3.5k

$BTC hit $94k

Yeah the perp exchange’s behavior makes sense

In a small flash crash — liquidations are the traders’ problem

But, in a sufficiently deep flash crash, which immediately bounces back, with some traders buying at the rock bottom — liquidations suddenly become the platforms problem

Sufficiently big flash crashes could bankrupt the whole platform, if handled wrong

— at best forcing the the platforms to take huge haircuts even from winning traders,

— and at worst, making the entire platforms insolvent and bankrupting the platforms themselves

Happened e.g. in ~2012 Bitcoin flash-crashes IIRC

Traders may call this a bull flag but man do those dips look scary

From recent highs, that was a:

-10% drop for $BTC
-14% drop for $ETH
-23% drop for $SOL

Wonder why the chart for the exact same Raydium pool looks so different on Photon than it does on dexscreener

Seems dexscreener may be screwing up and missing some candles
