BTC is likely to stay within ±2.3% over the next 24 hours, and within ±1.2% over the next 4 - each band held about 80% of the time in testing.
The labels say what each reading was found to be good for when we tested Whalio's data against what prices did next. Ranges are statistical, not guarantees: roughly one 24-hour window in five ends outside its 80% range, and fast markets break ranges more often. Nothing here tells you what to buy or sell. Compare all coins.

Whalio holds 322 days of Binance spot order flow for BTC, starting 2 November 2025. On a median day the pair turns over $1.24bn across 3,375,314 trades, which works out at about $366 a trade.
On 15 October 2026, the most recent complete day, the buy ratio was 46.73% against a median of 49.2%. That is the 18th percentile of the days measured, which makes it leaning, but within its normal range. Turnover came to $1.84bn, 1.5 times the median day.
Net taker flow has not settled into a run: the side crossing the spread in greater size changed within the last three days.
The heaviest day on record is $6.94bn on 5 February 2026, and the busiest by count is 14,805,126 trades. The largest single-day gain measured is 11.81% on 6 February 2026.
All of this is Binance spot only. The buy ratio counts which side crossed the spread, not who placed the order or why, and BTC can trade differently on another venue or in futures.
