EIGEN is trading at $0.2453 with a spot volume of $7,564,092 over the last 24 hours. In the last hour, the buy ratio stands at 50.7%, indicating that buyers are currently outpacing sellers in short-term activity. However, this bullish sentiment fades when looking at longer timeframes, with the 4-hour buy ratio dropping to 43.6% and the 24-hour ratio settling at 46.5%. Volume delta reflects this divergence, showing a positive $1,530 inflow in the last hour but a cumulative outflow of -$48,365 over 4 hours and -$535,520 over 24 hours. The Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) for the 24-hour close is -$491,869, confirming that net selling pressure has dominated the day despite brief intraday buying.

The latest daily buy ratio of 54.4% sits at the 97th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.4% - among the strongest buying days it has had.

The 8-day volume delta was positive at +$1,210,346, contrasting with the current 24-hour negative delta. Price increased by 5.3% over the 8-day period, but the current session shows a shift toward net selling after five days of net buying in the prior week.
