How to Use the Market Pulse Terminal (/markets): Mover Attribution, Vol/OI Anomalies & Short Squeeze Detection

The Market Pulse & Movers terminal unifies Crypto (liquid perpetuals & spot), US Equities, and BIST 100 into a single real-time intelligence screen.

1. How "Why It's Moving" (Catalyst Attribution) Works

Every asset's 1h and 24h move is automatically cross-referenced against two empirical layers:

1. Scored News & Catalyst Match: Matches recent high-importance headlines (importance >= 0.4) tagged with the asset alongside historical post-news abnormal returns.
2. Derivative Microstructure Classification: When no headline explains the move, the engine classifies the structural driver:
3. Short Squeeze: Crowded negative funding (funding < -0.01%) + elevated Vol/OI turnover + sharp upward impulse.
4. Long De-leveraging Flush: Overheated positive funding followed by a rapid downside liquidation cascade.
5. **Volume / OI Surge (Vol/OI > 2.0x):** 24h volume exceeding twice total open interest.
6. Idiosyncratic Alpha Divergence: Strong outperformance relative to BTCUSDT, SPY, or XU100 benchmarks.
