Highlights

Sentiment weakens this week on fading DTCC hype and cross-border token pressure

Stellar's recent period saw fading retail demand after earlier excitement surrounding its partnership with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) for asset tokenization. On June 4, XLM experienced $2.71 million in long position liquidations out of $3.19 million total, underscoring heightened volatility. Weak investor sentiment and sector-wide pressure on cross-border remittance tokens have also taken a toll.

Technical signals mixed as elevated volatility sustains persistent selling pressure

On the weekly chart, XLM has retreated to the bottom of its recent range, with volatility elevated at 50.61%. The asset trades above the MA-20 and MA-200, but below the MA-50, confirming ongoing resistance from the longer-term trend. Weekly momentum signals are mixed: the MACD shows a strong bearish bias, while the ADX points to a modest bullish trend; RSI is neutral-to-bullish, but the Stochastic RSI indicates strong selling momentum and CCI flags overbought conditions. Bull/Bear Power still points to short-term buyer dominance, but overall the picture reflects persistent selling pressure through the end of the week.

Sideways range favored in coming week as technical indicators lack consensus

For the next seven days, XLM is expected to range between $0.1730 and $0.2100. Weekly indicators do not provide a clear directional bias, with roughly even odds of price increase or decrease, as only half the technical signals favor buying. The central scenario is for continued sideways action near current prices. Upside attempts above $0.2100 are possible if buyers regain strength, while further weakness could trigger a test of support near $0.1730.

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, sees Stellar (XLM) moving through a sentiment-driven correction this week, with fading retail enthusiasm after the DTCC partnership news and sector pressures weighing on price. He notes that while the asset closed above its MA-20 and MA-200, it failed to reclaim the MA-50, reflecting persistent longer-term resistance. Volatility was elevated, and liquidations highlighted ongoing nervousness among traders. With momentum indicators providing mixed signals and direction unclear, Turakhiya favors a scenario of further range-bound trading between $0.1730 and $0.2100 as both sentiment and technicals search for balance. "Unless buyers regain conviction and break through $0.2100, I expect sideways movement to dominate this week — sentiment remains split and technical resistance looms overhead."

Earlier, analysts noted that Stellar remained under broader selling pressure despite ecosystem expansion and new partnerships supporting its long-term potential. The latest technical and sentiment data reinforce this cautionary stance, with traders advised to watch for sustained moves above $0.2100 or breakdowns below $0.1730 as signals for the next directional shift.
