Recently, I've been paying close attention to the order book liquidity data for BTC, and I have some interesting findings I want to share with everyone.
After observing for a period of time, I found that the incremental waveforms on the order book can explain a lot. When green peaks appear, it usually indicates that whales are actively accumulating at low prices, and this accumulation behavior is often accompanied by the formation of a local bottom. On the other hand, red peaks are different—they signal that whales are starting to distribute, with trading volume suddenly increasing, mainly driven by the buildup of limit sell orders.
Looking at this recent market trend, it's particularly clear. When BTC bottomed around $87,000, a quite obvious green peak appeared on the order book, and then the price began to steadily rebound. This pattern almost always corresponds to a local bottom. Conversely, when the incremental data shifts from green to red, it often marks the appearance of a local top. If the red peaks continue to extend downward, it’s time to prepare for a larger decline.
The situation over the past few hours has become a bit subtle. The incremental data is turning red, and although the price fluctuations are not large, the limit sell orders are clearly increasing, and trading volume is also picking up. These are objective signals from the market that need to be taken seriously. The crypto market is never easy, so always stay vigilant.

Green turns to red, the whales are selling again, I'm tired of this routine.

The theory of green turning to red sounds a bit exaggerated. How credible is it really?
The order book strategy does have some nuances, but this time the whale's tactics don't seem as obvious.
Wait, is your wave analysis similar to that of a certain big V? It looks a bit familiar.
During the 87,000 wave, I didn't notice the green peak when I was watching; maybe I was looking at the chart from the wrong angle.
Is the accumulation of limit sell orders really that accurate? I've missed out several times before, so I believe in this method.
It's indeed subtle, but I dare not act, afraid of getting caught in a trap.

Whales are playing the color game, and we're just here watching the fun—typical Schrödinger's bull market.
---
The transition from green to red sounds like supply and demand curves, but in reality, it's just gamblers shifting. I bet there will be another wave.
---
Haha, the art performance of the order book—its aesthetic value is seriously underestimated by the market.
---
Is your alertness online? Brother, are you joking or serious? No one's vigilance can save this market.
---
If this red peak continues, we will witness history; otherwise, it's just another fake-out.

Perfectly illustrates the philosophy of a bear market. The data looks as beautiful as a Dadaist artwork, but unfortunately, the wallet is empty.
---
Accumulation of limit sell orders? Sounds like whales are selling wolf tickets.
---
I missed the green peak at 87,000. Looking at this breakdown, I can only go all-in and regret it.
---
Honestly, at this pace, we might not be far from a complete liquidation sell-off. Let's watch and cherish the moment.

The order book can talk, but it will never tell the truth. This is the cruel reality of the Web3 decentralization spirit.

The wave at 87,000 indeed bought the dip quite a bit. Now that the red peak is rising, I'm a bit panicked.

The green-to-red point is indeed sensitive; we need to keep a close eye on it.

Turning green to red then starts to feel uncomfortable, always gets tricked like this

Green has turned to red, and the wave is about to start again...
The rhythm of whale distributions is really steady, always giving a hint of caution.
That wave of 87K absorbing funds was indeed fierce; now that it's turning red, be cautious.
Order books don't lie; the accumulation of sell orders is a signal.
This rhythm... feels like it's time for another test.
If the red peak continues, it won't escape.
Has the limit order increased? That means someone is talking.
The bottom is confirmed; now let's see where the top is.
It's truly subtle, and the insight is hanging in the balance.
Caution is right; we can't relax.

Be careful with the green-to-red switch, I also saw the 87k wave, whales definitely have a pattern in their tactics.

I saw this red peak early on; I need to keep a close eye on this distribution wave.
