HBAR Drops 1.4% to $0.1675 as Key Support Breaks
HBAR’s technical structure turned decisively bearish after repeated failures to breach the $0.1700 resistance zone, with a surge in trading volume confirming a key support breakdown.
On Tuesday, the token slipped 1.4%, declining from $0.1698 to $0.1675 as sellers pushed below the $0.1650 support level. Trading activity spiked 68% above the 24-hour average, reaching 105.45 million tokens around 21:00 UTC, coinciding with the decisive breakdown that reinforced bearish control.
Intraday volatility reached 4.9%, with HBAR trading within a $0.0084 range. Short-term data highlighted repeated rejections at $0.1690–$0.1697, now acting as resistance after failed attempts to sustain upward momentum. The subsequent drop toward $0.1676 confirms a bearish reversal pattern, signaling weakening market sentiment.
Technical factors are driving the current trend, with limited fundamental catalysts influencing HBAR. The inability to recover above $0.1700, coupled with volume-backed support breaks, has shifted the structure firmly to the downside. Traders are closely watching $0.1690 for potential reversal signals, while sustained weakness below $0.1650 could open the path toward the next support near $0.1620.
A brief rebound to $0.1675 on thin volume indicates a technical retracement rather than a sustained recovery. Without a significant increase in buying pressure, HBAR’s near-term outlook remains biased toward further declines.
