Token underperforms as network growth fails to offset selling pressure
The Hedera network reported a 168% increase in transactional activity over the past 30 days, with total value locked in decentralized applications rising 12.3% to $33.2 million. A financial privacy workshop was held in New York City with major banks such as Citi and J.P. Morgan participating. Additionally, $15,000 in bounty prizes was announced for the ETHGlobal Mumbai hackathon beginning November 5th to encourage developer engagement and ecosystem growth, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.
Bearish momentum persists despite strong trend and technical divergence
HBAR/USD is trading below the 20-day, 50-day, and 200-day moving averages at $0.0911, $0.0879, and $0.0818, indicating pronounced downside pressure across all timeframes. Resistance is marked at $0.0815 and support at $0.0746, while the longer-term outlook remains bullish given the 50-day and 200-day positioning. Oscillators such as MACD show a sell signal, while ADX maintains a buy bias with increasing trend strength. The RSI at 44.90, Stochastic RSI at 39.39, and CCI at -69.22 all suggest mild downside bias and no overbought conditions. Bear Power is negative and intraday flows are weak, confirmed by a soft Awesome Oscillator reading. The session opened with a downside gap of approximately 2.1% and the price is near the daily low amid 7.23% volatility. A minor divergence persists between trending strength and mostly bearish momentum signals.
Previously it was reported that despite ongoing ecosystem and regulatory developments, Hedera remained under sustained selling pressure and exhibited limited breakout potential. The latest analysis confirms this bearish outlook, highlighting continued downside momentum and suggesting that traders should monitor the $0.0746 support as a potential trigger for renewed weakness.
