Sunday · Minute-level BTC order flow from Binance · 1,992,011 trades
March 03, 2024: Bitcoin ground out a +1.82% gain. The 815 BTC of net buying flow at $63,114 told a clear story — buyers 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 buying throughout the day. 21 bars with trade sizes 3σ+ above normal (peak: 8.2σ), spread across 00:16–22:21 UTC. The 16 BTC of whale flow reinforced the day's buying bias.
Most of the action happened during US hours, which accounted for 74% of the day's net flow (696 BTC buying). The rest of the day was a footnote.
A clean, flow-driven day. The 0.96 correlation between cumulative flow and price means buying 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.
A tale of two halves — sellers pushed 160 BTC through the morning, then buyers flipped the script with 976 BTC in the afternoon.
Breaking it down by session: Asia -0.63%, Europe +1.29%, US +1.15%. Europe stood out.
| Session | Hours (UTC) | Return | Net Flow | Flow Share |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Asia | 00:00 - 08:00 | -0.63% | -63 BTC | 7% |
| Europe | 08:00 - 14:00 | 1.29% | 182 BTC | 19% |
| US | 14:00 - 00:00 | 1.15% | 696 BTC | 74% |
Per-minute volume split by aggressor side. Green = actively bought at the asking price. Red = actively sold at the bid price.
Nothing unusual for a bull-regime day. The +1.82% return was consistent with the period's average of +0.34%.
