Thursday · Minute-level BTC order flow from Binance · 1,150,707 trades
January 06, 2022: Bitcoin slipped 0.85%. The 343 BTC of net selling flow at $43,082 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).
Sustained large-player selling throughout the day. 19 bars with trade sizes 3σ+ above normal (peak: 6.9σ), spread across 00:16–23:20 UTC. The 133 BTC of whale flow reinforced the day's selling bias.
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 564 BTC through the morning, then buyers flipped the script with 221 BTC in the afternoon.
Session returns were muted across the board: Asia -0.47%, Europe -0.22%, US -0.16%.
