Problem

OKX Business Analytics needs to identify the highest-volume users on the OKX trading platform. Write a PostgreSQL query that ranks all users by their total trading volume during the 30-day period ending today.

Requirements

  1. Include every user, including users with no qualifying trades, with zero volume for users without activity.
  2. Include only trades whose executed_at falls between CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL '29 days' and the end of CURRENT_DATE.
  3. Use a window function to identify the top 10% of users. For this exercise, divide users into ten volume-ordered deciles with NTILE(10) and return users in decile 1.
  4. Return the user ID, username, 30-day trading volume, and decile, ordered by volume descending and user ID ascending.
