Volume delta on futures (Net Delta)

Net Delta, or volume delta, is market (taker) buys minus market sells per candle on the Binance USDT contract. Positive: buyers pushed; negative: sellers. It does not accumulate: each candle stands alone.

How to read it

Section titled “How to read it”
  • Price rises on positive delta: the move is backed by market buying.
  • Divergence: price rises while delta is negative. The rally runs on limit orders; market sellers push but cannot bring the price down. Often absorption before a reversal or, the other way round, a strong limit buyer.
  • Huge delta with no price move: the pressure was absorbed.
  • Compare with Spot: Net Delta to see which market leads the move.

USD or coins. In coins it is the delta divided by the candle’s close, so it differs slightly from Taker volume in Delta view, where coins are the actual traded volume. Default: USD.
