How the market reacted

ATOM is trading at $1.79 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 55.9% and a 4-hour buy ratio of 55.0%, both indicating that buyers are currently dominating the market. These short-term figures are higher than the 24-hour buy ratio of 50.7%, suggesting that buying pressure is building rather than fading. The volume delta shows positive inflows of $22,882 over the last hour and $59,022 over the last four hours, meaning more money is flowing into spot buys than sells. Over the full day, the cumulative volume delta stands at $36,432, confirming sustained net buying activity.
The latest daily buy ratio of 44.7% sits at the 9th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.8% - among the weakest buying days it has had.
Was that an ordinary day?
