Avalanche (AVAX)

Cryptocurrency.com.tr reports that Avalanche trades near $11.44 on Binance, sitting above all major daily moving averages while the broader crypto market cooled 2.54% over the past 24 hours. The daily uptrend remains structurally intact with price above the EMA20, EMA50, and EMA200, but momentum is losing steam as the hourly RSI hits 76.85 in overbought territory. This divergence between the strong daily trend and stretched hourly reading suggests the setup can either power through resistance on fresh demand or snap back once short-term buyers run out of room.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for AVAX, measured when this story was written up on 6 October 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio spot data shows AVAX trading at $11.13, with a 1-hour buy ratio of 41.0% and a 4-hour buy ratio of 49.3%, both trailing the 24-hour buy ratio of 51.7%. This decline in shorter-term buying ratios indicates that immediate buying pressure is fading compared to the full day's activity. The 1-hour volume delta is -$620,945 and the 4-hour volume delta is -$188,881, meaning more volume was sold than bought in these recent windows. In contrast, the 24-hour volume delta is +$1,217,221, showing that net buying outweighed net selling over the longer period. The CVD for the 24-hour close is +$4,150,141, confirming that cumulative buying pressure has been positive over the day.
The latest daily buy ratio of 47.7% sits at the 28th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.3% - weaker buying than most days.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for AVAX, averaged over the days leading up to the story.

Net buying occurred on 4 of the 7 days, suggesting a mixed but generally positive trend over the week.
