Example Response (truncated)

{
  "data": {
    "pairDayDatas": [
      {

Monitoring Criteria

  • TVL Drop Flag: Pools are flagged if liquidity (reserveUSD) drops by more than 10% within 24 hours.
  • Volume Spike Flag (optional): Pools are flagged if dailyVolumeUSD is more than twice the 7-day moving average.

​
Rate Limits and Notes

  • No hard limits, but it’s recommended to query once a day.
