Whalio data shows BCH trading at $337.50 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 48.8% and a 4-hour ratio of 53.6%. These short-term readings contrast with the 24-hour buy ratio of 48.1%, indicating that buying pressure is fading over the longer timeframe. The 1-hour volume delta is -$68,458, showing recent selling dominance, while the 4-hour delta is +$470,099, reflecting earlier accumulation. The 24-hour volume delta stands at -$4,001,826, confirming net outflows over the full day. A negative Cumulative Volume Delta of -$1,212,736 at the close reinforces that sellers controlled the session. Net buying occurred in only 13 of the 24 hours, with spot volume reaching $110,125,123.
The latest daily buy ratio of 56.4% sits at the 86th percentile of the last 323 days, against a median of 50.8% - stronger buying than most days.
