Buying pressure is showing signs of short-term building, as the 1-hour buy ratio of 59.2% significantly exceeds the 24-hour average of 45.7%. This shift is supported by a positive 1-hour volume delta of +$9,416,780, contrasting sharply with the -$71,475,879 delta recorded over the full day. While the 4-hour metrics remain neutral with a 50.4% buy ratio and a modest +$828,030 delta, the immediate 1-hour activity suggests a temporary surge in buyer aggression. The negative cumulative volume delta of -$25,101,468 indicates that despite recent strength, sellers dominated the broader 24-hour session. Traders are currently reacting to the resistance wall with increased activity, though the daily trend remains bearish.
