Flow Analysis

Sustained large-player buying throughout the day. 40 bars with trade sizes 3σ+ above normal (peak: 8.6σ), spread across 00:53–23:56 UTC. The 181 BTC of whale flow reinforced the day's buying bias.

This was day 4 of consecutive net buying. Multi-day streaks reflect sustained conviction, not noise.
