Flow Analysis

Sustained large-player buying throughout the day. 21 bars with trade sizes 3σ+ above normal (peak: 8.2σ), spread across 00:16–22:21 UTC. The 16 BTC of whale flow reinforced the day's buying bias.

A clean, flow-driven day. The 0.96 correlation between cumulative flow and price means buying pressure was the dominant force — no hidden passive flow muddying the signal.
