Flow Analysis

A textbook absorption day. Sellers hit the bid aggressively (correlation between cumulative flow and price: -0.59), but price still climbed +1.76%. The buying was passive — limit orders soaking up the supply.

Sustained large-player selling throughout the day. 25 bars with trade sizes 3σ+ above normal (peak: 7.7σ), spread across 01:49–17:58 UTC. The 216 BTC of whale flow reinforced the day's selling bias.

Day 12 of unbroken net selling. The market had a directional lean and wasn't letting go.
