Net Buying

Definition

Net buying occurs when the total volume of buy orders for an asset exceeds the total volume of sell orders over a specific period. This condition indicates a dominant demand side in the market, leading to upward price pressure as buyers are willing to pay higher prices to acquire the asset. It reflects a positive sentiment among market participants, suggesting a collective belief in future price appreciation. Sustained net buying is a key characteristic of an accumulation phase or a bull market.
