Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes that OP failed to reclaim any major moving average, with clear evidence of subdued demand. Selling pressure remains across all key timeframes, and technicals confirm a strong downtrend. The absence of news catalysts highlights weak sentiment. He sees the oversold readings as a risk, not a buying signal, due to the lack of underlying support. "Until OP reclaims at least the MA-20, further downside risk dominates and any rebound will likely be short-lived," Kharitonov warns.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, believes OP’s recent gain demonstrates the market’s resilience at current support levels. He sees potential for consolidation and renewed upside, given the oversold readings and the possible setup for a trend reversal. No negative news flow leaves the bullish structure largely intact. "Further growth is expected if bulls manage to regain control above $0.415 — the market offers multiple setups for buyers here," Karapetjanc states.

Jainam Mehta, market strategist, observes that technical and macro indicators favor consolidation within the $0.36–0.40 range. Downward momentum is robust, but oversold signals hint at a pause in selling. He views a tactical entry on a breakout above $0.415 as viable, with caution if $0.36 fails. "Potential breakout attempts could offer contrarian entries, but risk management remains key at these levels," Mehta says.

Oversold signals deepen as momentum remains decisively bearish

OP continues to show weak signals on the daily chart, with the MACD firmly bearish and the ADX confirming a strong downtrend. The daily RSI is at 33.3 and CCI sits at –140, both in oversold territory, while the Stoch RSI is neutral near the mid-50s. The nearest resistance is around the Ichimoku Kijun at $0.4148, and immediate support lies just under today's low. Bollinger Band Percentile (BBP) points to seller dominance intraday, but some momentum oscillators remain neutral, reflecting mixed signals between short-term buying activity and prevailing longer-term bearish momentum. Previously it was noted that Optimism faced strong dynamic resistance with ongoing bearish momentum, as most oscillators pointed to oversold conditions. Last time we reported that bearish momentum and oversold signals as resistance limits rebound, as detailed in this update.
