Sustained large-player selling throughout the day. 20 bars with trade sizes 3σ+ above normal (peak: 17.8σ), spread across 00:26–20:30 UTC. The 466 BTC of whale flow reinforced the day's selling bias.

Day 3 of unbroken net selling. The market had a directional lean and wasn't letting go.

A clean, flow-driven day. The 0.97 correlation between cumulative flow and price means selling pressure was the dominant force — no hidden passive flow muddying the signal.
