DEX Screener for CVD Data Quality: What It Can and Cannot Cover

DEX Screener reports buys and sells counts and volume over rolling windows. Those are useful flow snapshots, but not a cumulative delta series.

Short answer

DEX Screener's pair data includes transaction counts split into buys and sells for windows such as m5, h1, h6 and h24, plus volume per window. That shows recent one-sidedness, but it is a rolling snapshot, not a cumulative series, and counts are not volume-weighted delta. To approximate CVD you'd need to store snapshots or use trade-level data from another source. ChartsPod's CVD covers CEX and Hyperliquid markets with trade-based tools.

Counts vs volume

Many small buys and a few large sells can show 'more buys' while net volume is selling. Treat count ratios as activity, not delta.
