How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for STX, measured when this story was written up on 26 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio data shows STX trading at $0.3264 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 56.4%. This buying pressure is stronger than the 4-hour ratio of 54.9% and significantly higher than the 1-hour ratio of 42.7%. The 24-hour volume delta is positive at $264,620, contrasting with a negative $41,978 in the last hour. This indicates that while recent hourly flow is net selling, the broader daily trend remains net buying. A positive volume delta means buyers are initiating more market orders than sellers over that period. The 24-hour CVD closes at +$189,877, confirming net aggressive buying over the day.
The latest daily buy ratio of 55.9% sits at the 87th percentile of the last 323 days, against a median of 50.8% - stronger buying than most days.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for STX, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, STX saw a 7-day average buy ratio of 49.7%. Today’s 24-hour buy ratio of 56.4% is 6.7 points above that weekly average. However, spot volume was only 0.59x the weekly average, indicating lighter participation. The coin gained 14.9% over eight days with a total volume delta of -$206,777. This suggests the recent price rise occurred on relatively lower volume compared to the weekly norm.
