How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for NEAR, measured when this story was written up on 2 October 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
NEAR is trading at $4.81 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 52.0%, indicating that buyers are currently dominating the immediate short-term flow. However, this momentum is fading over longer periods, as the 4-hour buy ratio drops to 41.5% and the 24-hour ratio sits at 45.1%. The 1-hour volume delta is positive at +$256,637, showing net buying pressure in the last hour, but this contrasts sharply with the 4-hour delta of -$3,554,266 and the 24-hour delta of -$22,264,717. This divergence suggests that while short-term buyers are active, the broader 24-hour trend is defined by significant net selling. Over the full day, net buying occurred for only 3 of the 24 hours.
The latest daily buy ratio of 51.5% sits at the 77th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.7% - stronger buying than most days.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for NEAR, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
This recent activity follows a week where the 7-day average buy ratio was 50.3%, making today's 24-hour ratio of 45.1% a decline of 5.1 points from the weekly norm. Trading volume has been 1.06x the average, indicating slightly higher activity than usual. Despite the net selling delta of -$10,873,797 over the past 8 days, the price has risen by 4.7% over that same period. This marks a shift from the preceding week, where net buying occurred on only 3 of the 7 days.
