How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for VET, measured when this story was written up on 5 September 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
In the last hour, the buy ratio was 38.9% with a negative volume delta of -$8,442, indicating immediate selling pressure. However, this contrasts with the 4-hour buy ratio of 53.4% and a positive volume delta of +$9,930, suggesting that buying pressure is building over a slightly longer timeframe. Over the past 24 hours, the buy ratio held at 54.4% with a volume delta of +$74,103, confirming that net buying has outweighed selling for the day. The volume delta represents the difference between buy and sell volume, showing that more money flowed into buys than sells during this period. Spot volume reached $844,342 across 16,740 trades, with net buying occurring in 13 of the 24 hours.
The latest daily buy ratio of 54.4% sits at the 91st percentile of the last 281 days, against a median of 49.8% - among the strongest buying days it has had.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for VET, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Compared to the preceding week, today’s 24-hour buy ratio of 54.4% is 5.3 percentage points higher than the 7-day average of 49.1%. This marks an unusual day for the coin, as volume was only 0.42x the weekly average, indicating lighter participation. While the 24-hour volume delta was positive at +$74,103, the total volume delta for the 8-day period was negative at -$234,349. Price changed -1.1% over the 8 days, with only 2 of the 7 days showing net buying. This suggests that despite today's improved metrics, the broader weekly trend has been dominated by net selling.
