Thursday · Minute-level BTC order flow from Binance · 1,382,785 trades
October 26, 2023: Bitcoin slipped 1.00%. The 2,688 BTC of net selling flow at $34,152 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. 23 bars with trade sizes 3σ+ above normal (peak: 11.1σ), spread across 00:20–22:39 UTC. The 11 BTC of whale flow reinforced the day's selling bias.
A clean, flow-driven day. The 0.91 correlation between cumulative flow and price means selling pressure was the dominant force — no hidden passive flow muddying the signal.
