Question	Flags
"Top whales by volume this week"	`--sort volume --window 7d`
"Biggest accumulators last 30d"	`--sort net_flow --window 30d --order desc`
"Wallets dumping the most this 24h"	`--sort outflow --window 24h`
"Most active traders last 7d"	`--sort tx_count --window 7d`
"Best PnL"	`--sort pnl --window all`: an ordering only, see below

Output

An object { "wallets": [...], "total": N }. total is the size of the matching population, not the number of rows.

Each wallet: address, volume, inflow, outflow, net_flow, tx_count, tokens_traded, first_seen, last_active, realized_pnl, tokens_profitable, pnl_available. USD columns are already plain dollars.

There is no label column and no *_usd suffix. To name the wallets, pass the addresses to vike-data wallet batch.

Reading tips

realized_pnl is a ranking key, not a dollar figure. Stored values are wrong for many wallets (a measurement found 233 of 500 sampled Ethereum leaderboard wallets at 10× or more above the rebuilt value, and the top rows can show a profit thousands of times the wallet's own volume). Use --sort pnl only to order wallets against each other, never quote realized_pnl, and never call pnl_available: 1 a guarantee. It is computed from on-chain transfers; Hyperliquid PnL is a different dataset (vike-data perp top-traders, realized PnL only: open positions are not included).
first_seen here is not a lifetime first-seen (it disagrees with wallet summary); read it as "first seen in this dataset".
Labeled wallets first: after wallet batch, entity = "binance" / wallet_type = "cex" means a CEX hot or cold wallet, not a discretionary trader. Filter those out if the user wants "real traders".
Top volume wallets are almost always bots, routers and venues. net_flow is the more informative sort for "who is accumulating", and even then check the wallet type.

Anti-patterns

--size > 20 is silently clamped to 20, and there is no offset: the tool is a top-of-leaderboard view. Don't promise a deeper list.
Don't build "smart money" lists on --sort pnl (see vike-smart-money-discovery for the supported route).
Don't use this for a single wallet: wallet summary is the right call.

Pairs well with

vike-data wallet batch <addr...> to label the rows
vike-data wallet summary <address> to drill into any interesting row
vike-smart-money-discovery for the smart-money read

vike-wallet-discover
