Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for SHIB, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the average buy ratio was 47.6%, making today's 24-hour ratio of 49.0% slightly above the norm by 1.4 points. Trading volume was 1.12x the weekly average, while the 8-day volume delta remained negative at -$1,333,199. Only one of the last seven days saw net buying, despite an 8-day price change of +7.1%.
