Flow Analysis

Large-player activity detected: 22 bars with trade sizes 3σ+ above normal (peak: 8.8σ) between 00:29–22:59 UTC. Whale flow netted 266 BTC of buying.

Flow reversed midday. The first 12 hours belonged to buyers (+544 BTC), but sellers erased that and then some (-1,019 BTC) in the back half.

This was day 12 of consecutive net selling. Multi-day streaks reflect sustained conviction, not noise.

A clean, flow-driven day. The 0.94 correlation between cumulative flow and price means selling pressure was the dominant force — no hidden passive flow muddying the signal.
