Intraday selloff accelerates as resistance triggers surge in trading volume

Trading activity in Internet Computer surged on October 30, 2025, driven by a sharp rejection from the $3.15 resistance level. Volume spiked nearly 300% above average during the selloff, and the $3.04 – $3.05 zone now acts as immediate resistance. No new macroeconomic, regulatory, or institutional catalysts were reported for the asset, and the move was driven by technical intraday trading dynamics.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, believes that despite the recent 300% spike in trading activity for Internet Computer, the absence of new regulatory or institutional catalysts keeps the outlook neutral to cautious for investors. He notes that persistent downward pressure below key moving averages and the struggle to reclaim resistance at $2.93 suggest a lack of fresh bullish sentiment among market participants. "Traders should remain vigilant for any shifts in fundamentals or news flow before considering a directional position," Kharitonov advises.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees the current volatility and spike in trading volume for ICP as an opportunity for tactically minded traders, despite short-term technical weakness. He highlights that the strong trend indicated by the elevated ADX and the immediate proximity to dynamic resistance set the stage for reactive trading setups, especially if price manages to break above $2.93. "If the market absorbs current selling and reclaims the $2.93 level, the bullish structure could quickly rebuild and further growth may follow," Karapetjanc asserts.

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, points out that intraday sellers remain firmly in control as confirmed by momentum indicators and the failure to hold above $3.00. Observing the sharply negative sentiment with oscillators in oversold territory, he warns of further downside if $2.80 fails to hold. "Traders should watch for signs of exhaustion among sellers, but until then, bearish momentum looks hard to fade," Turakhiya says.

Bearish momentum prevails as indicators diverge amid heightened volatility

Momentum signals are negative, with the daily MACD reinforcing a strong sell and daily ADX indicating a strong trend, but directionally bullish on the indicator itself. However, all oscillators — RSI (39.39), Stoch RSI, and CCI — point to oversold or bearish conditions. The BBP and Awesome Oscillator confirm sellers maintain dominance intraday. The price opened at $3.06 (no significant gap from the previous close of $3.15), but has since fallen 10.79% to near today’s low of $2.80 within a volatile session. The intraday tone points to heavy pressure after the open, and while momentum is strong, there is a divergence as ADX remains elevated but not directionally supportive.

Last time we reported that bearish momentum persisted as ICP traded below key moving averages. Previously it was noted that technical indicators remained cautious amid continued selling pressure.
