Liquidity

Start with a named pool and an illustrative trade size. Record quantities separately from dollar valuations, and do not treat a deposit total as a promise of execution. The guides collected here move from a broad framework to Solana-specific identification and metric definitions. Compare observations only after matching the asset, venue, unit, and time window.

A useful liquidity note explains the conditions behind a quote and distinguishes that quote from a completed transaction. Save the route, assumed size, fee treatment, and source timestamp. When only an aggregate deposit value is available, state that it does not answer the narrower execution question. Read the framework first, then apply the pool-level checklist to the exact research object. Finish with the metric guide to separate price effects from quantities and avoid calling every dollar increase a new deposit.
