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

During the period under review, market orders show a localized downward balance shift, but the surges in buy market orders appear more pronounced. This is clearly reflected in the delta histogram (green rectangle) and indicates increased buying activity.

At the same time, limit orders show a predominance of buy orders (orange rectangle), which act as support in the current range. This indicates the presence of additional counter limit demand.
