Deribit: Deribit perp price at 84,249.0 with positive CVD (5.16).

Agreement & Divergence: Spot venues show minor positive or flat CVD while major linear perpetual venues (Binance, OKX, Bybit) exhibit mild negative CVD, indicating light perp-side selling pressure into the Asia open.

4. ORDER-FLOW DIAGNOSIS

Spot CVD: Spot CVD 5m is slightly negative (-0.8128), reflecting lack of aggressive spot accumulation.
Perpetual CVD: Perp CVD 5m is negative (-17.4777), led by selling pressure on Binance and OKX linear perps.
Open Interest Dynamics: Aggregate OI is stable at 158,006.83 BTC with zero velocity change and neutral shock direction.
Funding & Basis: Aggregate funding rate is positive at 0.12 bps, with Binance recording 0.41 bps and Hyperliquid 0.125 bps.
Liquidation Events: Minimal liquidations over the last 5m ($1,684.54 total long volume, 1 event count at 84,226.8).

Causal Sequence: Minor perpetual selling pressure emerged into the Asia open, pushing perp CVD down while spot remained relatively flat, without triggering liquidation cascades or OI expansion.

5. LIQUIDITY MAP

SCENARIO_B STRUCTURAL SCENARIO (Model Scenario Weight: 35%)

Structural Direction: Long
Development Hypothesis: Imbalanced expansion above value sustains as passive bids absorb minor perp selling, pushing price toward previous day standard deviation resistance levels.
Development Condition: 84300.0 | Spot CVD turns positive and price holds above 84,200 with resting ask absorption.
Supporting Evidence: Continuation of upside auction toward SD3 and SD4 levels.
Confirmation Signals: Spot CVD turns positive and price holds above 84,200 with resting ask absorption.
Scenario Invalidation: Hypothesis fails upon aggressive opposing delta absorption.
Potential Structural Reference Levels: $84,501.70, $84,653.20, $84,800.00

SCENARIO_C STRUCTURAL SCENARIO (Model Scenario Weight: 20%)

Structural Direction: Short Tail

8. STRUCTURAL SCENARIOS

SCENARIO A STRUCTURAL SCENARIO (Model Scenario Weight: 60%)

Structural Direction: Long
Development Hypothesis: Perp short aggression is fully absorbed by passive spot bidders at 84,495.0, leading to an upside squeeze toward the 24h high.
Development Condition: Successful defense and positive delta shift | Perp CVD turns positive alongside spot CVD expansion and resting bid stacking.
Supporting Evidence: Sideways absorption -> aggressive short exhaustion -> upward expansion toward 84,883.
Confirmation Signals: Perp CVD turns positive alongside spot CVD expansion and resting bid stacking.
Scenario Invalidation: Structural hypothesis fails if Break and acceptance below absorption level with heavy selling volume
Potential Structural Reference Levels: $84,883.00, $85,200.00, $85,500.00

Structural Direction: Long
Development Hypothesis: Mean reversion back into the previous day value area after clearing weak short inventory.
Development Condition: {'price_condition': 'Defense of 83842.8 with absorption of sell delta'} | Spot CVD turns neutral-to-positive and resting bid depth expands.
Supporting Evidence: Rejection at support leading to short-covering rally back toward POC.
Confirmation Signals: Spot CVD turns neutral-to-positive and resting bid depth expands.
Scenario Invalidation: Structural hypothesis fails if {'price': 83650.0}
Potential Structural Reference Levels: $84,123.90, $84,500.00, $84,820.00

SCENARIO_C STRUCTURAL SCENARIO (Model Scenario Weight: 20%)

Structural Direction: Neutral
Development Hypothesis: Range compression within weekend liquidity thinness, preventing directional follow-through.

Supporting Evidence: Choppy sideways consolidation.
Confirmation Signals: Volume drops off and CVD flattens.
Scenario Invalidation: Structural hypothesis fails if {'price': 85000.0}

9. THESIS INVALIDATION CRITERIA

Resting bid depth increases significantly above ask depth.
Spot CVD reverses sharply positive across all major exchanges.
Sustained acceptance back inside the value area above 84340.
