Highlights

Jupiter (JUP) trades at $0.3718, below its MA-20 ($0.4291), MA-50 ($0.4782), and MA-200 ($0.4746), reflecting pervasive selling pressure across all timeframes.
Jupiter will reduce token supply from 10 billion to 7 billion JUP in January 2025 and dominates 21% of Solana's Total Value Locked, affirming its growing DeFi market role.
JUP dropped 7.24% today with high intraday volatility, and forecasts suggest a low probability of upside, targeting a trading range between $0.3635 and $0.3679 over the next five days.

Supply cut and DeFi expansion shape sentiment ahead of JupUSD launch

Jupiter’s substantial reduction of its token supply in January 2025—from 10 billion to 7 billion JUP—was aimed at improving governance alignment and remains a key corporate milestone. The platform’s dominance over 21% of Solana’s Total Value Locked highlights its expanding role in the DeFi ecosystem. Other developments, such as the anticipated launch of JupUSD and a recent airdrop, may further influence JUP’s exchange rate moving forward.

Volatility and mixed momentum as price nears intraday lows

The nearest dynamic support is the Ichimoku Kijun at $0.3096, while resistance remains overhead at the MA-20 and $0.4046 region; no golden or death cross is present between MA-50 and MA-200. Momentum signals are mixed. The daily MACD remains negative with a sell forecast, while ADX indicates firm trend strength. The RSI at 45.98 and the Stoch RSI near overbought suggest limited upside, while CCI stands neutral. Bull/Bear Power (BBP) is flat, hinting at no clear intraday leadership. The Awesome Oscillator supports the prevailing downward trend. JUP fell 7.24% today, with current price close to the session low ($0.356 support) after opening with a minor upward gap. Price action shows high intraday volatility and persistent selling pressure after the open. Divergence exists between a strong ADX and weakening momentum, confirming today’s decline aligns with negative signals from most oscillators.

Downside risk prevails as range narrows and volatility wanes

For the next five trading days, JUP is expected to trade between $0.3635 and $0.3679. The probability of an upward move is very low (less than 20%). The likelihood of continued downside is much higher. The baseline scenario anticipates price consolidation within a narrow range as volatility subsides. A bullish outcome would require a break above $0.4046, targeting the MA-20 for further gains. A bearish scenario unfolds if the price slips below $0.3635, potentially accelerating losses toward the next Ichimoku support around $0.3096.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees continued technical weakness for Jupiter (JUP) as it remains well below key moving averages, with momentum signals skewed to the downside. While the recent supply reduction, strong DeFi presence, and upcoming platform developments suggest long-term potential, Kharitonov notes that current sentiment and price action remain firmly bearish in the short term. He remains cautious, expecting further consolidation or possible declines unless resistance at $0.4046 is reclaimed. "Until Jupiter breaks above $0.4046 with convincing volume, I see no tactical reason to turn bullish — for now, risk remains to the downside."

Previously it was noted that persistent seller pressure across all major timeframes continued to weigh on the asset’s momentum. The last report emphasized the pressured environment for JUP as technical signals confirmed continued seller control.
