How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for ARB, measured when this story was written up on 4 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
ARB is trading at $0.1410 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 51.8%, indicating a slight majority of buyers over the full day. However, the 1-hour buy ratio stands at 54.6%, showing stronger immediate buying pressure compared to the 4-hour ratio of 45.4%. The 24-hour volume delta is positive at $1,821,034, while the 4-hour delta is negative at -$305,942. This suggests that while net buying has accumulated over the day, recent short-term flow has been net selling. The buy ratio represents the percentage of trades executed by buyers versus sellers, highlighting where the immediate demand lies. Volume delta measures the net difference between buy and sell volume, showing the actual flow of capital.
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.
