Highlights
- Injective (INJ/USD) faces sustained bearish pressure, trading below key short- and medium-term moving averages on the hourly chart.

- Expected trading range for the next 2–3 days is $5.24 to $5.78, with immediate bias toward further consolidation or downside.
Bearish momentum confirmed as support holds but trend conviction falters
On the hourly chart, INJ trades below the MA-20 and MA-50, while remaining above the MA-200, highlighting the $5.51 area as key short-term support. The Ichimoku Kijun level at $5.81 serves as immediate resistance. MACD and Awesome Oscillator confirm current bearish momentum, while ADX remains neutral, suggesting the move lacks strong trend conviction. The RSI is in the sell zone, and both CCI and Stoch RSI show oversold conditions, signaling an oversold state without a clear reversal signal. The Bull/Bear Power (BBP) indicates intraday dominance by sellers.
Downward bias expected as volatility maintains tight trading range
Looking ahead over the next 23 sessions, the expected price range is $5.24 to $5.78, reflecting typical volatility. There is a 30% probability for an upward move, with a more likely scenario of continued downward bias or consolidation between visible support and resistance levels. A move above $5.81 would be required to improve the short-term outlook, while a break below $5.24 may open the way for further downside.
Earlier, analysts noted that Injective's outlook was constructive, supported by ongoing ecosystem developments and positive longer-term momentum. The recent shift to short-term bearish momentum and a loss of key moving average support signals increased caution, making the $5.24 support level critical for traders monitoring downside risk in the coming sessions.
