Volume. Range. The moments that mattered.
A clearer view of the world’s most watched markets.
See how much traded, how far price travelled and where activity concentrated. Every report names its instrument, source and observation window.
Our approach ↗Explore by asset class. Every tile opens a full session breakdown.
A practical guide to the numbers behind each move.
Futures volume counts contracts. Crypto volume here covers the named exchange and pair. Spot FX has no single consolidated global volume figure.
Compare the same instrument, venue and time window. High volume alone does not prove buying pressure: every completed trade has a buyer and a seller.
The daily change compares closing levels. The range measures the distance between the session’s high and low. They answer different questions.
A wide range with a small closing change can mean price moved substantially before returning near its starting level. It does not tell you which high or low happened first.
GC is a COMEX gold futures contract, distinct from spot gold. An index is not its futures contract. Proxy data is labelled so you know exactly what was measured.
Treasury yield changes are shown in basis points: one basis point is 0.01 percentage point. Futures volume is in contracts; crypto volume may be in units of the asset. Those totals should not be added together.

Reported
A named source reported this observation. The link and time define its scope; a reported fact is not automatic proof of causation.
Analysis
Our interpretation or a testable mechanism. It may explain the move, but it is not presented as a transaction we observed.
Context / Method
Background, prior-session evidence or a guide to reading the data. It is not passed off as a fresh event.
The evidence gap
Every report states what we could not verify. A wallet transfer is not a proven sale; options volume does not establish dealer inventory; a large futures print does not name a trader.
