In this market review, we are not attempting to predict the future; our task is to state the facts we have at the current moment. We base our actions on these facts, not on our expectations and hopes.

Market Orders and Limit Orders

Locally, market order volumes are slightly more buy-heavy, and the balance is shifting toward buyers—this is clearly reflected in the aggregated delta histogram (orange rectangle). Pressure is gradually shifting to the buyers.

Limit orders also show a predominance of buy orders (green rectangle), indicating strengthening local limit support in the current range.
