Polygon falls 7.03% this week

Highlights

POL remains under heavy downward pressure, trading at $0.1285—well below key weekly moving averages MA-20 ($0.1689) and MA-50 ($0.2057).
Bearish momentum is clear as the MACD signals sell, RSI stands at 39.9, and POL posted a 7.03% decline last week.
POL is likely to consolidate in a $0.1250–$0.1350 range, with a greater than 80% probability of further downside and resistance at the Ichimoku Kijun ($0.1975).

Institutional adoption advances as restructuring and partnerships accelerate

Polygon recently completed a significant restructuring, reducing its workforce by 30% and acquiring Coinme and Sequence in deals totaling over $250 million to advance its regulated payment solutions. These actions were implemented to enhance Polygon’s position as an institutional blockchain infrastructure leader, providing regulated fiat on- and off-ramps at 50,000 US retail locations and supporting enterprise-grade, cross-chain payment solutions. Network activity remains strong with up to 700,000 daily active addresses and expanded partnerships with Stripe, Shift4, and Revolut further solidify institutional adoption. Ongoing expansion of stablecoin payroll integrations and continued daily token burns are helping to shape the protocol’s deflationary ecosystem.

Bearish technical signals persist as sellers dominate the week

Weekly technicals for POL remain bearish: the price is firmly below both the MA-20 ($0.1689) and MA-50 ($0.2057), with dynamic resistance from the Ichimoku Kijun at $0.1975. Indicators on the weekly timeframe show a strong sell from the MACD and bearish signals from RSI (39.9), Stoch RSI, and CCI, suggesting selling conditions or movement toward oversold territory. The ADX sits neutral at 18, indicating weak trend strength, while the Awesome Oscillator is neutral and offers little confirmation of a reversal. Bollinger Band Percentile readings and last week's moderate to high volatility confirm that sellers controlled the market, driving the price close to its weekly low.

Downside bias likely as sideways action expected to persist next week

Looking ahead to the coming week, POL is expected to consolidate between $0.1250 and $0.1350, with a continued high probability (more than 80%) of further downside as bearish technical conditions persist. The most probable scenario is continued sideways movement, although a break above $0.1350 could encourage a short-term rebound. Conversely, an extension of the current downtrend could push the price below $0.1250 and establish new weekly lows if selling pressure continues. Traders should watch for a shift in momentum as confirmation for any significant reversal.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, leading expert at Traders Union, sees Polygon’s recent restructuring and major acquisitions as a proactive move toward long-term institutional adoption. He highlights that, despite a 7.03% price drop this week and continued bearish technicals, Polygon’s robust network activity and strategic payments expansion build a strong case for future growth. Karapetjanc believes that consolidation in the $0.1250 to $0.1350 range is likely this week, but further downside risk remains unless momentum shifts. Still, expanding partnerships and a deflationary tokenomic structure keep the bullish outlook intact for medium-term investors. "Polygon’s proactive institutional push and ecosystem growth signal that strong foundations are being laid — I see opportunity for reversal once sellers lose steam."

Previously it was reported that Polygon (POL) is trading below key short- and long-term moving averages, reflecting ongoing selling pressure despite tentative medium-term support, with technical indicators showing mixed momentum as the daily MACD gives a buy signal while the Stochastic RSI is oversold and the ADX signals a slowing uptrend. For the coming week, price action is expected to consolidate within a defined range, with volatility bands limiting recovery potential and a higher probability of downside continuation unless resistance at $0.1426 is decisively broken.
