HBAR, the native token of the Hedera network, experienced a significant downturn in the last 24 hours, losing 4.82 percent of its value and falling to $0.07402. During trading, the price fluctuated between $0.07395 and $0.07810. With a market capitalization of $3.22 billion and a 24-hour trading volume of $66.8 million, HBAR is now closely monitored by the crypto community as it nears critical support zones.
Dipping below key support levels
The intraday chart revealed that HBAR began the day at around $0.077 but saw a steady pullback throughout the session. Recovery attempts towards $0.078 quickly lost momentum. Later in the day, intensified selling pressure drove the price under the $0.076 mark, reaching as low as $0.0735.
Data shows that the downtrend, marked by lower highs since June 16, continues in HBAR. The latest drop has established a new short-term low, highlighting persistent weakness.
Analysts have identified the $0.073 to $0.074 range as a crucial short-term support. A sustained break below this zone could bring $0.070 back into focus, and if selling extends, attention might shift to the $0.068 area—an important zone where previous sideways price action occurred.
On the upside, the immediate goal is to reclaim $0.075. However, a stronger resistance awaits between $0.077 and $0.078, a region that previously saw upward moves being met with increased selling pressure and subsequent pullbacks.
Indicators highlight prevailing sell pressure
Technical indicators further confirm the dominance of sellers in the short term. The MACD line has dropped to approximately negative 0.00085, while the signal line stayed around negative 0.00058. The histogram, measuring roughly negative 0.00027, remains in the red, underlining continued downward momentum as HBAR approaches session lows.
Glossary: The Chaikin Money Flow is a technical indicator that combines price and volume to assess buying and selling pressure. Values below zero suggest that selling volumes surpass buying during the period analyzed.
The Chaikin Money Flow indicator currently stands at negative 0.37. This reading implies that sell-side volume dominates in the monitored timeframe. Its persistently negative values since the latest leg down suggest buyers have yet to stage a strong or lasting comeback.
While a short-lived relief rally could emerge, technical conditions for confirming a higher low or renewed bullish momentum are not yet present on the chart.
Long-term view draws parallels with Amazon
Market analyst Vuori Trading drew an analogy between Hedera’s post-2021 market capitalization chart and Amazon’s trajectory following the dot com bubble crash. Hedera, which leverages distributed ledger technology and targets enterprise use cases, appears to exhibit a structural similarity to that earlier era in the tech world.
According to the analyst, both assets underwent a prolonged consolidation after a speculative early peak, with price action forming a base along an ascending trendline. The implication is that, should HBAR hold its current range, it might be developing a stronger long-term foundation.
Nonetheless, the analyst stressed that this comparison does not guarantee identical outcomes. While Amazon’s subsequent rally was fueled by revenue growth and business expansion, HBAR’s future market cap will depend on network adoption, utility, circulating token supply, and overall market conditions.
For now, HBAR maintains a weak short-term outlook. With the token trading near daily lows and a persistent downtrend in place, it must recover and break above the $0.077 to $0.078 range to signal any near-term reversal.
