Arbitrum jumps 24.8% on 14.7 times its usual turnover

Arbitrum (ARB) Whalio analysis Editor: Eugene Serbin

Arbitrum closed at $0.2212 on Binance spot on 18 September 2026, up 24.76% for the day. The largest single-day gain measured by Whalio over the past 295 days was 34.34% on 5 September 2026.

Turnover reached $94.4M, the second-largest daily figure on record; the heaviest day measured was $100.2M on 6 September 2026. This is 14.7 times the median day of $6.4M.

Binance registered 632,409 trades over the day, against a median of 29,061. The average trade was $149, compared with $221 on a median day.

The buy ratio - the share of turnover that hit the ask rather than the bid - came in at 50.99%, the 70th percentile of this coin's own history. Net taker buying totalled $1.9M, or 2% of the day's turnover.

What the tape does not show is one-sided pressure. A move of this size on 21.8 times the usual number of trades, at a smaller average ticket, with net flow only 2% of turnover, is consistent with a thin resting book being repriced by many small orders rather than with size being lifted. That is a reading of the data, not a claim about who was trading.

These figures cover Binance spot only. Order flow records which side of the book crossed the spread, not who sent the order or why, and a coin can trade very differently on another venue or in futures.

The figures above are the day itself. Measured against this coin's own record they say something more specific than a price move: turnover ranked 2nd of 295 days, the trade count ranked 2nd, and the buy ratio sat at the 70th percentile.

The latest daily buy ratio of 52.1% sits at the 85th percentile of the last 323 days, against a median of 49.6% - stronger buying than most days.
