Flow Analysis

Sustained large-player buying throughout the day. 27 bars with trade sizes 3σ+ above normal (peak: 6.3σ), spread across 00:11–23:47 UTC. The 292 BTC of whale flow reinforced the day's buying bias.

A clean, flow-driven day. The 0.89 correlation between cumulative flow and price means buying pressure was the dominant force — no hidden passive flow muddying the signal.
