How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for STRK, measured when this story was written up on 24 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
STRK is trading at $0.03832 with a 24-hour spot volume of $5,511,005. The 1-hour buy ratio is 49.7%, while the 4-hour ratio is 44.8%, compared to a 48.7% ratio over the last 24 hours. The 1-hour volume delta is -$616, and the 4-hour delta is -$59,829, indicating that selling pressure is currently outweighing buying pressure in the short term. The volume delta measures the net difference between buy and sell volume, showing that more money is leaving the market than entering it over these periods. CVD closed at -$362,658 over 24 hours, confirming a net outflow of capital.
The latest daily buy ratio of 46.5% sits at the 20th percentile of the last 323 days, against a median of 48.6% - weaker buying than most days.
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 37.3% price increase, but volume was only 0.37x the average. The 7-day average buy ratio was 47.3%, while the latest day saw a ratio of 48.6% (47.3% + 1.3 pts). Only 1 of the last 7 days saw net buying, and the total 8-day volume delta was -$4,008,960. This indicates that despite the price surge, buying activity was sparse and volume was significantly below normal levels compared to the recent 24-hour activity.
