Friday · Minute-level BTC order flow from Binance · 1,252,571 trades
Bitcoin slipped 1.76% on Friday, March 11, 2022, closing at $38,730 as sellers controlled aggregate flow with 723 BTC of net pressure.
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).
The big players were active all day. 17 bars of outsized trades (8.6σ peak) from 00:55–19:52 UTC, adding 219 BTC of selling pressure on top of the broader selling flow.
Flow reversed midday. The first 12 hours belonged to buyers (+41 BTC), but sellers erased that and then some (-764 BTC) in the back half.
A clean, flow-driven day. The 0.80 correlation between cumulative flow and price means selling pressure was the dominant force — no hidden passive flow muddying the signal.
Cumulative buying pressure (purple, left axis) vs cumulative price return (yellow, right axis). When these diverge, flow and price are telling different stories.
Session returns: Asia -0.74%, Europe +0.32%, US -1.35%. US led the move.
