Monday · Minute-level BTC order flow from Binance · 1,371,433 trades
May 13, 2024: Bitcoin climbed +2.4%. The 702 BTC of net buying flow at $62,940 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).
The big players were active all day. 36 bars of outsized trades (5.9σ peak) from 01:15–23:03 UTC, adding 530 BTC of buying pressure on top of the broader buying flow.
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.
