According to @52kskew, BTC order flow on Binance shows a predatory two-step pattern: bid-side spoofing on perps to hold or lift price, followed by large ask-side spoofing on spot to trigger algorithmic selling, enabling selective firms to scale into shorts before leading price lower, source: @52kskew. The mechanism relies on perps temporarily propping price while spot books quote above-market asks that algos avoid lifting, which cascades into market sells and a spot-led selloff, source: @52kskew. For informed counterparties, forcing price above the stacked asks can push the sell-side actor offside and provide exit liquidity higher, implying squeeze risk above, source: @52kskew. Near term, the tell is a perp-led uptick paired with heavy spot asks above price, which indicates distribution risk and short setups in BTC, source: @52kskew.

According to GreeksLive, the community shows a bearish tilt with traders planning to fade any scam pump and add short calls at higher levels, signaling downside risk after a brief squeeze, source: GreeksLive Community Daily Digest on X, Sep 29, 2025. According to GreeksLive, participants flagged spoofing with 1k-size orders stacked above and below current levels and pointed to liquidity imbalances that may need market maker partnerships to stabilize order books, source: GreeksLive on X, Sep 29, 2025. According to GreeksLive, active pair traders are getting squeezed as the pump materializes and many are monitoring BTC on 1m and 15m charts for potential retracement entries, source: GreeksLive on X, Sep 29, 2025.

According to @52kskew, BTC price action was dominated by order book spoofing both higher and lower. According to @52kskew, the only genuine buy flow was a TWAP bid supporting price during the move up. According to @52kskew, additional upside came from shorts closing into the rally rather than fresh spot demand.

According to @52kskew, Bitcoin (BTC) is seeing potential for a second round of large-scale activity, with multi 9-figure quotes appearing on both the spot and perpetual futures markets. Historically, such significant order book activity has often resulted in spoofing, where orders are pulled at the last minute. Traders should remain cautious, as these patterns can trigger short-term volatility and price manipulation risks in BTC markets (source: @52kskew).

According to Material Indicators, a significant block of buy orders for Bitcoin (BTC), referred to as a 'Big Buy Block' (BBB), was observed being pulled from the order book. This removal of a large bid wall is considered a bearish signal for traders, as it can indicate 'spoofing'—a tactic where large orders are placed to create a false sense of support and then canceled. The source noted, "There is nothing beautiful about this so called BBB," suggesting the move was deceptive and could lead to downward price pressure on BTC as the perceived support vanished.
