How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for FIL, measured when this story was written up on 2 October 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
FIL is trading at $1.02 on Binance spot, with buy ratios holding between 38.7% and 40.7% over the last hour, four hours, and day. The buy ratio remains below 50%, indicating that sellers are currently dominating the market. Volume delta is negative across all timeframes, showing a net outflow of $2.5 million over the last 24 hours. This negative delta means that sell volume has exceeded buy volume during this period. Buying pressure appears to be fading rather than building, as the 24-hour buy ratio is slightly higher than the 1-hour reading but still indicates bearish control. The market is reacting with net selling rather than accumulation.
The latest daily buy ratio of 48.3% sits at the 40th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 48.9% - ordinary for this coin.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for FIL, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the average buy ratio was 49.0%, making today's 40.7% reading 8.2 percentage points lower than the weekly norm. Spot volume for the day was 0.75 times the weekly average, indicating lighter trading activity than usual. Net buying occurred on only one of the past seven days, suggesting a generally weak trend. The 24-hour volume delta of -$2.5 million contributes to a total weekly delta of -$4.9 million. This represents an unusual day for the coin, characterized by below-average volume and a buy ratio significantly lower than its weekly average.
