Market order flow represents the aggregate volume and direction of buy and sell orders executed at current market prices over a specific period. It provides real-time insight into supply and demand dynamics, indicating the immediate pressure on an asset’s price. Analyzing order flow helps traders identify potential price movements and liquidity conditions. It reflects the collective actions of market participants.

High buy order flow suggests upward price pressure, while strong sell order flow indicates downward pressure. However, the fragmented nature of cryptocurrency exchanges can make a comprehensive assessment challenging. Advancements in on-chain analytics and aggregated data platforms aim to provide clearer insights into these underlying market forces.
