Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees ICP trading above near-term averages, but facing decisive resistance at MA-50 amid stronger long-term downtrend. He notes a lack of recent news catalysts, suggesting sentiment must be read directly from conflicting technicals and mixed momentum signals. Overbought oscillators and a sharp daily gain heighten caution, especially as MACD shows selling pressure and ADX points to weak trend strength. Kharitonov emphasizes the low odds of sustained upside, with wider volatility bands signaling risk. He warns, "Traders should be wary of overextension as momentum does not confirm the bullish price action."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, believes ICP’s short-term bullish structure remains intact above support at $3.08. He notes that the recent 10.13% price surge demonstrates robust demand, keeping focus on a possible breakout if $3.54 is cleared. The market’s strong intraday tone signals opportunity, even in the absence of supportive news. Karapetjanc is constructive on ICP’s technical resilience at current levels. He says, "Further growth is possible if buyers maintain control and the price holds above immediate supports."

Overbought signals increase caution with volatility as momentum diverges

Momentum signals are mixed: MACD on the daily suggests strong selling pressure while the ADX is low, indicating a lack of strong trend. Oscillators reveal overbought conditions (Stoch RSI at 100, CCI high, RSI at 56.25) while BBP points to dominant buyers intraday. The current price is up 10.13% today with no downside gap at the open. Price now sits close to today's high ($3.50) in a relatively wide intraday range, which signals strong upward tone and heightened volatility. The divergence between overbought oscillators and conflicting momentum indicators warrants caution, as the strength toward session highs is not fully confirmed by underlying momentum.

Previously it was reported that Internet Computer was displaying short-term strength above its 20-day moving average but continued to face resistance at key longer-term levels, with mixed technicals as momentum indicators showed weak trend confirmation amid overbought signals. Immediate support was identified near the Ichimoku Kijun, while the $3.50 – $3.54 area highlighted critical resistance, and overall outlook pointed to a higher likelihood of consolidation or downside in the coming days.
