Raydium falls over 10% as technical momentum fades and intraday volatility spikes
Raydium (RAY) dropped 10.00% as technical momentum faded, with buying signals losing near-term traction despite earlier strength. The move is partially contradicted by the asset’s bullish position above all major moving averages, which typically supports prices, but current volatility and fading intraday momentum amplified the selloff.
Highlights
- RAY/USD trades above key short-, medium-, and long-term moving averages, confirming bullish momentum across all timeframes.
- Momentum indicators including MACD and ADX support ongoing buying conditions, but both RSI and the Commodity Channel Index show the pair is nearing overbought territory.
- Price is expected to stabilize in the $1.9644 to $2.5223 range over five days, with a probability above 80% for an upward move and support at $2.1143 and resistance at $2.2258.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) sits at 69.368 with a “Buy” forecast, approaching overbought territory, while the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) flags the asset as “Overbought”.
