Retail sentiment shifts to neutral after institutional buying and earlier rally
Penserra Capital Management LLC increased its stake in AST SpaceMobile by 5.3% in the third quarter, as disclosed in the company's latest SEC 13F filing, bringing its holdings to 419,602 shares.

Mixed momentum signals as price stabilizes near support and resistance
The nearest support is indicated by the Ichimoku Kijun around $99.47, with dynamic resistance likely at the MA-20 and the next round level near $100. Momentum signals are mixed: the daily MACD remains strongly bullish while the ADX indicates steady bullish trend strength. The RSI is neutral-to-positive at 51.39 and the Stochastic RSI is oversold, but the CCI is neutral. Bull/Bear Power is in overbought territory, showing recent buyer dominance though intraday readings signal some exhaustion. The Awesome Oscillator remains neutral, not confirming direction. Price opened lower with a gap down from the previous close ($103.50 to $99.00), and after slipping 3.70% is currently near the intraday high within a narrow range — a sign of low volatility and some recovery after initial selling pressure. There are clear divergences across oscillators, with intraday direction still uncertain versus longer-term momentum.
Bullish weekly outlook as volatility narrows likely trading range
For the coming week, a volatility band for ASTS is adjusted to $90–$108, reflecting the recent price action and volatility. All weekly major indicators (RSI, ADX, MACD, MA-50) remain bullish, suggesting a very high probability (above 80%) of price increase, while further downside appears less likely. The base case is for ASTS to move sideways between $95 and $105. A bullish scenario would be a breakout above $105–$108, while a bearish move could test the $95–$90 zone if support near the Ichimoku Kijun fails.
Previously it was reported that AST SpaceMobile is exhibiting strong bullish momentum, trading well above key moving averages with all major indicators—MACD, ADX, RSI, CCI, and Stoch RSI—supporting a continued upward trend. However, despite this positive outlook, short-term indicators show overbought conditions and increased volatility, with dynamic support near the Ichimoku Kijun and resistance at psychological levels, suggesting the potential for near-term consolidation or profit-taking.
