Highlights

User experience boost and support tests follow wallet upgrade

The Freighter browser extension wallet for Stellar received a significant technical overhaul, reducing its initial load time to 1.27 seconds thanks to aggressive caching and batch asset fetching. This update is aimed at improving the user experience for managing assets on the Stellar blockchain. Stellar is also consolidating around a key technical support zone following these enhancements.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, believes that Stellar (XLM) remains under heavy pressure from sellers. He notes the failure to recapture medium and long-term moving averages, despite today's rebound. Sentiment is weak, as bearish momentum outweighs the oversold technical signals. Fundamental catalysts like the Freighter wallet update have not shifted the dominant trend. "Given persistent negative momentum and weak upside probabilities, I see limited tactical opportunities for buyers in the current setup," Kharitonov states.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, points out that Stellar’s ecosystem is showing encouraging development following the Freighter wallet update. He sees enhanced technical infrastructure as a positive driver for longer-term adoption and investor confidence. Macro conditions may still challenge near-term performance, but the bullish structure remains intact above dynamic supports. Karapetjanc concludes, "With ongoing improvements and resilient sideways action, further growth is expected once key resistance levels are reclaimed."

Oversold rally clashes with persistent bearish momentum signals

Momentum indicators on the daily chart remain bearish overall, with both the MACD and ADX favoring further selling pressure. RSI and CCI confirm an oversold state, while the Stoch RSI is neutral, hinting at a pause after previous declines. BBP suggests sellers still have a modest edge intraday. The Awesome Oscillator’s negative signal reinforces the prevailing downward trend. Today’s strong rebound — up 10.73% to $0.1662 — came after a nearly flat open with no notable gap, and the price now sits near the session high, reflecting high intraday volatility and sustained buying interest after the open. However, the divergence between oversold oscillators and persistently bearish momentum signals indicates that despite today’s strength, the underlying trend remains weak.

Previously it was reported that Stellar remains under persistent bearish pressure, trading below all major weekly moving averages with weak momentum confirmed by an RSI below 40 and sustained negative signals from MACD and ADX. For the coming week, the asset is expected to consolidate within a narrow range near support at $0.1440, with downside risks dominating unless resistance above $0.1580 is decisively cleared.
