How the market reacted

Solana is trading at $103.37 with a 24-hour spot volume of $202,144,452. The 1-hour buy ratio stands at 49.6%, while the 4-hour ratio is 51.8%, both hovering near the 24-hour average of 47.2%. Volume delta shows -$102,521 in the last hour but +$1,183,781 over four hours, indicating short-term selling pressure offset by recent accumulation. The cumulative volume delta for the day closed at +$3,071,916, with net buying occurring in 13 of the last 24 hours.

The latest daily buy ratio of 48.8% sits at the 27th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 50.0% - weaker buying than most days.
