Order flow rises as ecosystem growth tempers lingering sell-off

Sei experienced renewed trader interest after rebounding from a key support zone, which Coinpedia reported as boosting activity and temporarily improving order flow. The influx of participants likely provided short-term demand, even as overall market momentum faded. Ongoing projects such as Giga and Sedna, highlighted by Tronweekly, continue to expand Sei’s ecosystem and may support long-term growth ambitions, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Bearish momentum stays dominant as key resistance contains recovery

On the H1 timeframe, SEI/USD is now trading below the 20-period moving average at $0.0562 and the 50-period moving average at $0.0554. On the daily chart, the price remains well below the long-term 200-day moving average ($0.0773), while the Ichimoku Kijun is positioned at $0.0566, acting as immediate resistance. Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains bearish, accompanied by both Stochastic RSI and Commodity Channel Index (CCI) in oversold territory, highlighting possible exhaustion in selling momentum. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) and Average Directional Index (ADX) both remain in Sell mode, with Bull/Bear Power and the Awesome Oscillator also confirming predominant downside sentiment.

Downside risk elevated as SEI likely to consolidate in lower band

Looking ahead over the next two to three trading days, SEI/USD is expected to consolidate between $0.0519 and $0.0557. The probability of a near-term upward move is considered very low, while downside risk remains elevated. Continuation within this volatility band is the base case scenario. A bullish break above $0.0566 would signal a change in direction, while a move below initial support at $0.0519 could open the way for further declines.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees SEI under sustained downside pressure despite a recent uptick in trader activity after a support zone bounce. He notes that technical indicators remain bearish and the price sits well below key moving averages, keeping sentiment defensive. The analyst believes fundamental developments like Giga and Sedna are promising, but have yet to offset near-term selling. "Base case remains consolidation between $0.0519 and $0.0557 — any upside is unlikely until $0.0566 is reclaimed."

Earlier, analysts noted that Sei was experiencing only limited short-term optimism, with broader downside risks dominating the outlook. With persistent bearish momentum now reinforced by new lows below key moving averages, traders should be alert for a potential retest of multi-week support if weakness continues through the current consolidation range.
