What buy and sell pressure measures
Buy/sell pressure compares directional trading activity over an observed period. It can describe short-term flow, but it cannot prove accumulation, distribution or a future price move.

How to use this crypto buy sell pressure analyzer
Compare buying and selling activity without presenting transaction count or total volume as side-specific dollar flow. MoonMath states buy and sell dollar volume only where a provider observed it, and says so when it did not.
How to read the result
Treat a directional imbalance as context alongside liquidity, pool depth and time window. Thin pools can move sharply even when reported volume appears modest.
Data limitations
Some providers expose transaction counts and total volume but not side-specific dollar volume. MoonMath then shows the counts and the total, and states that the per-side volume was not reported or could not be read. It never models a split from the price.

Pressure Analyzer FAQ
What did the market report buying and selling over 24 hours?
Reported buys, sells and dollar volume over 24 hours, with per-side volume only where observed. MoonMath labels the data basis for this tool as Observed, Formula.
Is the Pressure Analyzer a prediction or recommendation?
No. The Buy/Sell Pressure Analyzer is an educational scenario tool, not financial advice, a recommendation, or a forecast. Provider coverage, liquidity, routing, fees and market conditions can make real outcomes materially different.
Does transaction count prove buy or sell pressure?
No. Buy and sell transaction counts do not reveal the dollar size of each side. Side-specific volume is preferred when the provider makes it available.
