Recordings

Week 11 — 104 million book updates

06 August 2026AmsterdamJordi Lluis

The live store was files on the Lightsail host, one UTC day per name. I deleted those copies. This is the layout, plus the one scan that still has counts.

Recording records, as operated on the VPS
ws_books_YYYYMMDD.jsonlBest bid and ask updates. Later gzip. No order sizes in the early files.
ws_books_l2_YYYYMMDD.jsonlStarted later. Depth at the ask — was this cheap ticket actually fillable?
live.logLAT_DETAIL rows. Identifiers private; hashes in EVIDENCE.md.
Join keyGamma market id, five-minute slot, side.
One scan104.5 million BBO updates, 12,929 markets. One stale-ask trigger. Apparent crosses gone in ≤ 0.02s.

A data point is an update, not a candle and not a fill. Without size, “would I have been filled” stays open even when the price looks cheap. August coverage is missing. The public CSV is anonymized market-resolution accounting — a different object.

I know how to rotate daily JSONL on a VPS and how to count a stream. I cannot replay those days from this site. The files are gone.
