How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for ARB, measured when this story was written up on 2 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
ARB trades at $0.1104 with a 1h buy ratio of 51.6% and a 4h buy ratio of 50.1%, both slightly above the 49.5% seen over 24h. This suggests buying pressure is stabilizing after a longer period of near-even balance. The 1h volume delta is +$35,148 and the 4h delta is +$24,155, indicating net inflows in the short term. However, the 24h volume delta is -$461,500, showing that net outflows have dominated the day. The CVD at 24h close is -$262,220, confirming that sellers have outweighed buyers over the full day.
The latest daily buy ratio of 46.5% sits at the 8th percentile of the last 281 days, against a median of 49.6% - among the weakest buying days it has had.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for ARB, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the 7d average buy ratio was 49.4%, with the latest day only 0.1 points higher. Volume was 8.16x the average, making this an unusually active day compared to normal trading. Despite the volume spike, the 8d volume delta was -$380,492, indicating net selling pressure over the week. The price rose 19.9% over 8 days, yet net buying occurred on only 3 of 7 days. This contrasts with the 24h period where net buying occurred for 12 of 24 hours.
