How this brief is built
- Every number covers the last 24 hours up to the update time, so the brief reads the same at any hour.
- Net taker flow counts trades that crossed the spread: buyers who paid the ask against sellers who hit the bid.
- Walls are the largest resting orders within 3 % of price in the live order book at the update time. They can be pulled at any moment.
- Volume POC and value area come from the volume traded at each price over 24 hours.
- Held, pulled and eaten walls are measured on the trades at the wall's own price; see liquidity walls.
