How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for STRK, measured when this story was written up on 19 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio spot data shows STRK trading at $0.04425 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 45.0% and a 4-hour buy ratio of 52.2%, indicating a shift toward buying pressure over the shorter timeframe. The 24-hour buy ratio sits at 48.0%, while the 24-hour volume delta is negative at -$1,346,346, suggesting that despite the price rise, sellers have dominated the total volume over the day. The 1-hour volume delta is also negative at -$56,939, whereas the 4-hour delta is positive at +$339,797, showing that recent flow has turned bullish compared to the immediate past hour. A positive volume delta means buyers are executing more volume than sellers, while a negative delta indicates sellers are in control; the current 4-hour data suggests buying pressure is building in the medium term.
The latest daily buy ratio of 45.1% sits at the 9th percentile of the last 324 days, against a median of 48.6% - among the weakest buying days it has had.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for STRK, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, STRK experienced a 54.5% price increase over 8 days, with volume reaching 19.47 times the average daily volume. However, the 7-day average buy ratio was 47.7%, and the latest day only exceeded this average by 0.2 points, indicating that buying participation has been relatively consistent rather than surging. Net buying occurred on only 3 of the 7 days, and the 8-day volume delta was negative at -$1,952,771. This contrasts with the current 24-hour spot volume of $33,667,370, which is significantly higher than the typical daily activity, marking this as an unusual day for the coin due to the massive volume spike despite the mixed directional flow.
