PENGU is trading at $0.009746 with a spot volume of $39,844,770 in the last 24 hours. The 24-hour buy ratio stands at 50.5%, indicating a balanced market, while the 1-hour ratio has dropped to 45.4%, suggesting short-term selling pressure. However, the 4-hour buy ratio is higher at 56.9%, showing that buying interest is building over a slightly longer timeframe. The 24-hour volume delta is positive at +$367,165, meaning buyers have been more aggressive than sellers over the day. In contrast, the 1-hour volume delta is negative at -$33,752, indicating recent profit-taking or reduced buying intensity.
The latest daily buy ratio of 50.4% sits at the 59th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 50.0% - ordinary for this coin.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for PENGU, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, PENGU saw a 39.5% price increase with a total volume delta of +$4,792,174. The 7-day average buy ratio was 51.2%, which is slightly higher than today's 24-hour ratio of 50.5%. Trading volume today was 2.54 times the weekly average, marking an unusually high level of activity. Net buying occurred on 5 of the 7 days last week, compared to 13 of 24 hours today. This data suggests that while the recent surge is significant, the underlying buying rhythm remains consistent with the broader weekly trend.
