How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for UNI, measured when this story was written up on 5 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio spot data shows UNI trading at $6.19 with a 1-hour buy ratio of 44.4%, indicating short-term selling pressure. This contrasts with a 4-hour buy ratio of 56.6%, suggesting that buying interest is building over a slightly longer timeframe compared to the immediate hour. The 24-hour buy ratio sits at 47.4%, showing that over the full day, selling has slightly outweighed buying. Volume delta reflects this mix, with a negative $627,791 in the last hour but a positive $3,729,315 over four hours. The 24-hour volume delta is -$3,498,060, while cumulative buying pressure (CVD) for the day closed at +$4,302,776. This indicates that while recent hours saw net outflows, the day ended with net inflows.
The latest daily buy ratio of 45.7% sits at the 13th percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 49.2% - weaker buying than most days.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for UNI, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, UNI saw a 7-day average buy ratio of 52.2%, which is 4.8 percentage points higher than today's 24-hour reading. Spot volume was 1.07 times the average, indicating slightly elevated trading activity. The coin experienced net buying on 6 of the last 7 days, with a total volume delta of +$13,410,503 over eight days. Price increased by 39.4% over the eight-day period. Today's lower buy ratio and negative short-term volume delta mark a shift from the consistent weekly buying trend.
