Bearish momentum dominates as HYPE drops 7.15% to $35.78, with indicators near oversold and short-term probability of price increase under 20%.

Mixed sentiment as buybacks clash with transparency concerns and cautious positioning

Hyperliquid buybacks have surpassed $521 million, offsetting 5.64% of circulating supply and creating a potential deflationary effect. Ongoing debates about the transparency and effectiveness of automated deleveraging mechanisms are leading to mixed sentiment among large holders and market analysts. Current market dynamics show both bullish and bearish traders are awaiting clear signals such as expanded on-chain liquidity or increased network activity before entering new positions.

Bearish bias and volatility rise as oversold signals meet indecisive momentum

Intraday momentum is mixed: MACD signals continued bearish momentum while ADX indicates strong but non-directional activity. RSI is close to oversold at 33.97 on D1, and Stoch RSI also hovers near oversold, but CCI remains moderately negative. BBP is neutral, suggesting neither buyers nor sellers have clear control for now. The Awesome Oscillator signals a bearish bias, which matches the ongoing downtrend. HYPE has dropped $2.76, slipping 7.15% with no meaningful opening gap, and is now trading near today’s low of the $35.38–$38.08 range. Volatility is elevated, and sellers are applying pressure after the open. Divergence between momentum and oscillators confirms uncertainty, with price action and bearish indicators aligned despite a few pockets of oversold signals.

Downside risk dominates outlook as resistance remains unbroken

Looking ahead, the next five days are expected to see HYPE trade between $27.06 and $29.85, with an average price of $28.45. The probability of a short-term price increase is very low (less than 20%), making a downward move much more likely. The baseline scenario is range-bound consolidation around current levels. The bullish case would require a break above key resistance near $46.75, while the bearish scenario could see a decisive move below support at $36.21, opening the door toward the lower end of the expected range.

Anton Kharitonov, analyst at Traders Union, notes that despite substantial buybacks, Hyperliquid (HYPE) remains under technical pressure, with key indicators and price action suggesting sellers retain control. He maintains a cautious outlook given the low probability of a near-term recovery, pointing to persistent mixed sentiment and the risk of further declines if $36.21 support fails. "The price remains vulnerable — unless we see a decisive reclaim of $46.75, I cannot trust any upside scenarios for HYPE at this stage."
