Thursday · Minute-level BTC order flow from Binance · 1,327,827 trades
November 11, 2021: Bitcoin traded flat. The 59 BTC of net selling flow at $64,774 told a clear story — sellers were in charge.
BTC price (blue) and trading volume (cyan bars) per minute. Session shading: Asia (gold 00-08 UTC), Europe (green 08-14), US (red 14-00).
Large players were on the wrong side — or the patient side. 15 bars of outsized trade sizes (peak 6.2σ) showed net buying, but price moved against them. Either they were accumulating into weakness or got caught.
A disconnect between flow and price (correlation: -0.47). Neither buyers nor sellers could convert aggressor-side pressure into directional movement.
This was day 3 of consecutive net selling. Multi-day streaks reflect sustained conviction, not noise.
Cumulative buying pressure (purple, left axis) vs cumulative price return (yellow, right axis). When these diverge, flow and price are telling different stories.
A tale of two halves — sellers pushed 563 BTC through the morning, then buyers flipped the script with 504 BTC in the afternoon.
Breaking it down by session: Asia +0.53%, Europe -0.74%, US +0.04%. Europe stood out.
| Session | Hours (UTC) | Return | Net Flow | Flow Share |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Asia | 00:00 - 08:00 | 0.53% | 78 BTC | 8% |
| Europe | 08:00 - 14:00 | -0.74% | -545 BTC | 53% |
| US | 14:00 - 00:00 | 0.04% | 408 BTC | 40% |
Per-minute volume split by aggressor side. Green = actively bought at the asking price. Red = actively sold at the bid price.
