Saturday · Minute-level BTC order flow from Binance · 1,056,716 trades
April 02, 2022: Bitcoin slipped 1.02%. The 52 BTC of net buying flow at $45,811 told a clear story — buyers were in charge.
BTC price (blue) and trading volume (cyan bars) per minute. Session shading: Asia (gold 00-08 UTC), Europe (green 08-14), US (red 14-00).
Someone was moving size. 9 bars between 00:41–19:51 UTC registered trade sizes 3σ+ above normal (peak: 13.3σ), pushing 105 BTC net buying.
A clean, flow-driven day. The 0.85 correlation between cumulative flow and price means buying pressure was the dominant force — no hidden passive flow muddying the signal.

A tale of two halves — buyers pushed 533 BTC through the morning, then sellers flipped the script with 481 BTC in the afternoon.
Breaking it down by session: Asia +0.65%, Europe +0.32%, US -1.98%. US stood out.
