How whales trade BTC

BTC is a deep, liquid market, so single prints of a few hundred thousand dollars are common and only multi-million orders really stand out. Watch whether aggressive buyers or sellers dominate the CVD pane over several candles rather than reacting to one bubble.

This page opens with a $10K minimum order filter, which you can change under "Min order". On the chart, bubbles mark large orders (green for market buys, red for market sells, a gold ring above $1M), the volume pane splits buying from selling, CVD tracks the running difference, and the liquidations pane shows forced orders.

Reading the BTC radar

If the buy share in the top bar stays above 60% for several minutes, aggressive buyers are in control.
Large sell bubbles landing at the high of a candle, followed by a falling CVD, often mark short-term exhaustion.
A burst of long liquidations after a drop can mark capitulation, while a burst of short liquidations after a rally can mark a squeeze.
