Flow Analysis
Aggressor-side sellers pushed flow negative throughout the day (flow-price correlation: -0.39), yet price finished up +2.17%. Passive buyers on the bid absorbed the selling without showing up in aggressor-side data.
Whale-sized trades (19 bars above 3σ, peak 9.9σ) pushed 195 BTC of net buying between 01:55–23:26 UTC — while price went the other way. Possible accumulation, possible pain.
The day split in half. Buyers controlled the first 12 hours (+65 BTC), then sellers took over (-317 BTC). The reversal changed the character of the day.
