How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for BTC, measured when this story was written up on 27 August 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
At $79,023.75, Bitcoin shows a 1-hour buy ratio of 44.0% and a 4-hour buy ratio of 46.3%, both trailing the 24-hour buy ratio of 49.9%. This divergence suggests that short-term buying pressure is fading relative to the full day's activity. Volume delta reflects this weakness, with -$9,365,201 in the last hour and -$26,934,662 over four hours, indicating net selling. Over 24 hours, the volume delta is -$903,088, while cumulative volume delta (CVD) closes at -$101,371,176. These figures show that sellers have dominated the flow, with only 6 of 24 hours seeing net buying.
The latest daily buy ratio of 46.7% sits at the 18th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.2% - weaker buying than most days.
