bitcoinethereumnews.com reports that Litecoin [LTC] jumped over 8% over 24 hours to about $62 as buyers returned across the wider crypt market. The move carried LTC to its highest price since June. However, the area between $63.80 and $65 could determine whether the rally continues or begins to lose momentum.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for LTC, measured when this story was written up on 21 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio spot data shows LTC trading at $58.74 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 53.5%, indicating that more than half of all volume was buying pressure. In contrast, the 1-hour buy ratio dropped to 42.5%, suggesting that short-term buying momentum is fading compared to the daily average. The 1-hour volume delta was -$144,167, meaning sellers dominated the immediate flow, while the 4-hour delta was positive at +$1,015,689. This divergence shows that while recent hours saw net selling, the broader four-hour window still reflects net buying activity.
The latest daily buy ratio of 44.9% sits at the 4th percentile of the last 323 days, against a median of 49.3% - among the weakest buying days it has had.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for LTC, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the average buy ratio was 48.7%, making the current 24-hour ratio of 53.5% an unusual day with +4.8 points above the average. Volume was 1.13x the weekly average, indicating heightened activity compared to normal days. However, the 8-day volume delta total was -$2,554,601, showing that net selling pressure has outweighed buying over the longer timeframe despite the recent price increase.
