Sustained large-player buying throughout the day. 20 bars with trade sizes 3σ+ above normal (peak: 5.6σ), spread across 01:32–22:13 UTC. The 105 BTC of whale flow reinforced the day's buying bias.

A clean, flow-driven day. The 0.95 correlation between cumulative flow and price means buying pressure was the dominant force — no hidden passive flow muddying the signal.
