HBAR Slides 6% on Heavy Institutional Selling, Rebounds Late in Volatile Session – 22/9/2025
HBAR fell 6% over a 23-hour period from September 21 to 22, dropping from $0.24 to $0.22 as institutional selling pushed volumes nearly three times above the daily average. Volatility surged, with trading ranges widening to 9.7%, while resistance formed in the $0.235–$0.24 zone, triggering a wave of liquidations.
The peak selling occurred around midnight on September 22, when volume spiked to 137.11 million. HBAR briefly touched $0.22, signaling potential capitulation among short-term holders. Despite the sharp decline, a late-session rebound saw bulls push the token from $0.2197 to $0.2222, fueled by a 6.21 million volume surge, before trading volumes collapsed in the final three minutes, indicating a temporary market pause.
