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.
