What is TopMover
A radar for crypto perpetual futures — the unusual prints, before the chart catches up.
TopMover is a market-anomaly radar for crypto perpetual futures. It watches every major USDⓈ-M perp across the big exchanges and surfaces the contracts whose flow — open interest, taker volume, liquidations, funding — has decisively moved away from baseline in the last hour. The chart usually catches up a few candles later.
It is not a portfolio, not an exchange, not a signal-selling service, and not investment advice. It is the tool you keep open in a side tab while you're already trading somewhere else.
What you actually get
- Top Movers / 异动榜 — a 1H-windowed ranking across 600+ USDⓈ-M perps, sortable by OI acceleration, CVD acceleration, volume acceleration, funding skew. The unusual ones float to the top.
- Watchlist — a private list of contracts you care about, with the same row layout so you don't context-switch.
- Signals — save a screener condition ("OI Accel > 15% AND funding > 0.02% AND MCAP > $50M") and we DM you the top hits every hour via Telegram. Plus per-coin price alerts.
- Liquidations Arena / 爆仓战场 — multi-exchange liquidation heatmap (Binance / OKX / Bybit / Bitget / Gate / HTX / Aster / Hyperliquid), with per-symbol attribution and a live feed.
- Coin Radar / 选币雷达 — once-a-day curated picks pulled from the same flow signals, for people who don't want to run their own screener.
- AI Trader (experimental, owner-gated) — a rules-engine + LLM narrator running real money on Binance Futures with a public dashboard. Open source narrative on every decision.
Who it's for
- Crypto perp traders who want a second screen showing what's moving abnormally right now, not what's already pumped.
- People who use Coinglass for liquidations but want a faster, more opinionated UI focused on anomaly attribution rather than raw totals.
- Trading desks who want a free baseline tool with verbatim methodology disclosure (the whole point of the Methodology section).
Honest disclosures up front
We're going to repeat these throughout the docs, but the headline is:
- TopMover is read-only. We never see your API keys. We never place a trade for you (the AI Trader experiment is the single exception, runs only the owner's $20–100 USDT capital, and is not open to others).
- The signals are not predictions. OI Acceleration is the observation that "open interest is moving fast." Whether that resolves up or down is something the chart tells you, not us.
- We aggregate, we don't curate. When you see Bitget showing 5× the volume Coinglass shows for the same symbol, it's because the two services source data differently and both definitions are internally consistent. We explain the data-source caveats in Methodology → Liquidations.
- No exchange affiliation. "Binance" and the other exchange marks belong to their owners. We use them descriptively to name the markets we cover.
