How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for ARB, measured when this story was written up on 2 October 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
ARB trades at $0.1999 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 49.0%, indicating near-even distribution between buyers and sellers. Short-term pressure shows a 48.5% buy ratio in the last hour, while the 4-hour window drops to 41.5%, suggesting weakening immediate demand. Volume delta reflects this shift, sitting at -$11,600 for the hour versus a -$235,209 deficit over four hours. The 24-hour volume delta is -$265,511, with cumulative volume delta closing at -$11,906. This negative delta means sellers have outweighed buyers over the day, despite the buy ratio hovering near parity. Spot volume reached $13,461,570 across 83,544 trades, showing active but net-outflowing participation.
The latest daily buy ratio of 49.6% sits at the 49th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.6% - ordinary for this coin.
