BEAM CVD: spot vs perp net buying
BEAM cumulative volume delta (CVD): taker buys minus taker sells, in US dollars. The table shows BEAM's net taker flow over the last 1, 4 and 24 hours on each exchange, spot and perpetual futures apart, and the chart shows spot and perp CVD over time.
Over the last 4 hours, BEAM spot was net bought (+$33K) and perps were roughly balanced (+$147K): only spot shows a clear imbalance, to the buy side. Over 1h the read is selling on both, while 24h agrees. The largest 24h net flow came from Bybit perp (-$379K). BEAM ranks #74 of 100 on the CVD screener by 24h volume ($39.2M across spot and perps).

BEAM CVD and taker flow
Spot vs perp, from range start · bars: net taker buysNot recorded Chart: TradingView Lightweight Charts™
How to read it. Net taker flow is taker buys minus taker sells in US dollars: the change in BEAM's CVD over the window. A side counts as buying or selling when its net flow is at least 2% of its volume and $10K; Spot buying, perps selling and Perps buying, spot selling are the divergences. Price, funding and open interest are on the BEAM page. Refreshed every two minutes. Not financial advice.
History since 27 Sep. BEAM's bars are recorded from 27 Sep, so the 30d chart starts there.
Taker split from Bybit (1-minute bars recorded from their public feeds). Stablecoins and HIP-3 stock perps are left out.
Bybit caveat. Bybit's taker split is rebuilt from its public trade stream. A Bybit minute without a split (the first minute after a reconnect, or one the stream missed) counts as neutral in the 5-minute and hourly rollups these figures and the chart's longer ranges use; minutes recorded before that fix count as selling, so Bybit's older CVD can lean slightly negative.
BEAM CVD FAQ
What does BEAM CVD show?
Cumulative volume delta adds up taker buys minus taker sells. The figures here are the change in BEAM CVD over the last 1, 4 and 24 hours (the net taker flow) on each exchange, split into spot and perpetual futures. The chart shows spot and perp CVD from the start of the chosen range, with net taker flow as bars below.
How is the verdict decided?
Each side (spot or perps) counts as buying or selling when its net flow over the window is at least 2% of the volume that carries a taker split and at least $10K; smaller imbalances count as balanced. The verdict is the 4-hour read, the same rule as the CVD screener. It describes what takers did, not what price will do next. Not financial advice.
