How a day gets a page

Our detector reads the real liquidation tape in 30 minute buckets and flags a bucket when its total forced closures exceed the larger of 30 million USD and six times the trailing median bucket, so the bar moves with market conditions. A day gets a page only when at least one bucket cleared that bar. Quiet days have no page, which is why this archive is short and will stay honest as it grows.
