Now this is the opposite extreme.
BTC/USDT order book shows:
đą Bids: 0.33%
đŽ Asks: 99.67%
Thatâs not âslightly bearish.â
Thatâs aggressively ask-heavy.
Letâs break it down properly.
1ïžâŁ Structure first
Price: 65,818
24h High: 68,410
24h Low: 65,556
Weâre sitting much closer to the low of the day than the high.
Chart shows:
Lower highs forming
Price under MA
MA sloping down
Thatâs short-term distribution / controlled bleed, not panic â but not strength either.
2ïžâŁ That 99% ask imbalance â what does it really mean?
Important: Binance spot top-of-book imbalance can be deceptive.
This likely means:
Very thin bids at current level
One or two visible larger sell walls sitting above
Buyers not aggressively stacking
It does not mean 99% of the market is selling.
It means visible liquidity near price is skewed to the sell side.
Which matters short term.
3ïžâŁ What this usually leads to
When:
â Price is below MA
â Order book is ask-heavy
â Weâre near daily low
Probability favors:
â Sweep of the low (65,556 area)
â Liquidity grab below
â Then decision
Markets like to test weak lows when bid depth disappears.
4ïžâŁ What would invalidate downside?
Youâd need:
âą Sudden bid stacking
âą Ask wall pulled
âą Strong green candle reclaiming MA
Without that, this is fragile structure.
5ïžâŁ Important nuance
When order book imbalance is this extreme, it often precedes:
Either a flush lower
Or a short squeeze if asks get pulled
But given current structure (lower highs + MA down), the path of least resistance is slightly lower first.
Key level:
65,550â65,500
If that breaks cleanly with volume â momentum expands.
If it wicks below and reclaims quickly â likely a liquidity sweep.
Compared to your BNB screenshot:
BNB = bid-supported trend
BTC = thin bids + pressure near lows
Very different microstructure tone.
