Resolves YES if on 8/31/2022 the top trader on https://salemcenter.manifold.markets/leaderboards has made a majority of their profits from a single trade or consecutive sequence of trades immediately after another trader bought or sold to a price of <1% or >99%.

Background: see https://www.cspicenter.com/p/introducing-the-salemcspi-forecasting. A number of large profits so far have been due to a trader making one large bet (e.g. M$1000) that is much larger than the liquidity pool, causing the price to move from e.g. 50% to <1%, and then the next trader was able to buy a large number of very cheap shares for a huge profit. Is this likely to remain the majority of the top profits by the end of August?
