How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for MORPHO, measured when this story was written up on 26 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Morpho is trading at $2.72 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 53.7%, indicating that buyers have controlled the majority of volume over the full day. However, the 1-hour buy ratio has risen to 52.5% while the 4-hour ratio dropped to 42.2%, suggesting that recent buying pressure is building after a brief dip. The 1-hour volume delta is positive at +$6,715, showing immediate accumulation, whereas the 4-hour delta is negative at -$149,144, reflecting earlier selling. The 24-hour cumulative volume delta closed at +$550,081, confirming that net buying dominated the session. This flow indicates that while short-term momentum is shifting toward buyers, the broader 4-hour trend remains under slight pressure.
The latest daily buy ratio of 53.3% sits at the 70th percentile of the last 323 days, against a median of 51.0% - stronger buying than most days.
Was that an ordinary day?
