The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator shows a transition from recovery into renewed weakness, while the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has moved lower, indicating bearish dominance without reaching extreme oversold conditions.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n<p>The asset faces immediate resistance near a short-term ceiling that previously provided support. A move above this level could allow the price to test a higher zone where selling pressure is expected to increase. A more significant shift would require a decisive break above broader structural resistance, which would indicate buyers are regaining control.<\/p>\n<p>If selling pressure continues, a nearby support cluster represents a critical area where buyers may attempt to stabilize the price. Failure to hold that level would weaken the technical outlook and expose the asset to further declines.<\/p>\n<p>Order book data shows large bid walls positioned below the current price, suggesting some market participants are prepared to defend lower levels. Substantial ask walls in the mid-range indicate heavy supply overhead. Clearing these sell orders would require increased momentum and volume.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>Long positions may be suited for short-term tactical setups rather than trend-following strategies while the broader structure remains bearish, according to market observers. Short-side strategies align with the prevailing trend, particularly on rallies into resistance, though volatility around key support zones remains a factor.<\/p>\n<p>The asset maintains a bearish bias on the daily chart, with trend and momentum indicators aligned to the downside. While temporary bounces are possible, the technical structure indicates sellers maintain control until the price can reclaim and hold key resistance levels.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bullish-or-bearish\">Bullish or bearish?<\/h2>\n<p>Short term (24h):<\/p>\n<p>Bearish.
