How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for ARB, measured when this story was written up on 15 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio spot data shows ARB trading at $0.1337 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 54.0% and a 4-hour buy ratio of 55.1%, both exceeding the 24-hour ratio of 54.9%. This indicates that buying pressure is building in the short term relative to the daily average. The positive volume delta of +$504,572 in the last hour and +$1,374,615 over four hours means more capital is flowing into buys than sells during these periods. Over the full 24 hours, the cumulative volume delta stands at +$1,366,589, confirming sustained net inflows. Spot volume reached $13,850,926 with 119,308 trades, while the cumulative volume delta closed at +$2,470,852. Net buying occurred for 16 of the last 24 hours, showing consistent upward momentum.
The latest daily buy ratio of 46.4% sits at the 8th percentile of the last 324 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 average buy ratio was 48.9%, making today’s 24-hour ratio of 54.9% an unusual day with a +6.0 point increase. However, the 24-hour spot volume of $13,850,926 is only 0.44x the weekly average, indicating lower-than-normal trading activity. While the 8-day volume delta shows +$247,974, the price has dropped 21.1% over the last 8 days. Net buying was recorded for only 2 of the last 7 days, contrasting with the current 16-hour streak. This suggests that despite today's strong relative buying, the broader weekly trend remains bearish with significantly reduced volume.
