BTC Market Review - July 7, 2026
Buyers are gradually taking over: market buy orders are increasing, and the price continues to rise smoothly despite the predominance of limit sell orders. Meanwhile, the market structure remains in a sideways phase.

In this market review, we do not attempt 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
Over the period under review, market orders have shown a shift in favor of buyers. This is clearly visible in the aggregated delta histogram, where buy market orders are increasingly dominant (green rectangle). This trend indicates an increase in buyer activity and a gradual strengthening of their initiative within the current range.
Meanwhile, limit orders show the opposite: the balance has shifted downwards, and limit sell orders predominate in the order book (red rectangle). These volumes are creating local resistance and reflect participants’ willingness to sell at current prices. However, despite the increase in supply, the price continues to rise smoothly, indicating the insufficient effectiveness of limit sellers and the ability of buyers to absorb the offered liquidity.
Price change per unit volume
The effectiveness of volume has currently shifted in favor of buyers: less volume is required to drive the price up compared to downward pressure. This indicates an increase in the effectiveness of buying activity and a gradual decline in the effectiveness of sellers.
In other words, buyers achieve greater price effect with smaller volumes, while sellers require increasingly more liquidity to exert a comparable impact on the price. This dynamic indicates a strengthening of local initiative on the part of buyers.
Balance Index
Against the backdrop of the current movement, the Balance Index has shifted significantly upward and is near the abnormal percentile value zone. This reflects a noticeable increase in buyer activity and confirms the predominance of demand in the period under review.
At the same time, the index’s position near extreme values indicates that the market is in a phase of increased imbalance, where the likelihood of local consolidation or a short-term correction is gradually increasing.
Price Dynamics
Market buy orders are becoming more pronounced, and the price is responding to this activity with a smooth rise. This confirms that buying volumes are currently exerting a real influence on price movement and are gradually taking over.
At the same time, sell orders remain dominant in limit orders, forming local resistance in the current range. Despite this, buyers continue to gradually push the price upward, indicating successful absorption of counter-offer and a decline in the effectiveness of limit sellers.
Summary:
According to Charles Dow’s theory, the local structure is still in a sideways trading phase. Despite increased buyer activity and a gradual price increase, the market has not yet formed a fully formed ascending structure, as there is no consistent pattern of new highs and lows.
However, the shift in balance in favor of buyers, the increasing volume efficiency, and the inability of limit sellers to halt the price movement indicate a gradual strengthening of buying initiative. If this trend continues, the market may develop the preconditions for breaking out of the sideways range upwards.
