Its trading volume was up nearly 550% over the last 4 hours at nearly $66 million, while its market cap stood at $36 million.<\/p>\n<p>While there were no major catalysts such as significant developments or new partnerships driving the gains, the surge appears to have been fueled by renewed interest from whale investors.<\/p>\n<p>According to data from Santiment, the number of whale wallets holding 10,000 to 100 million IDEX tokens has increased over the last two days. Such whale accumulation often increases token visibility and signals confidence from large investors, factors that also tend to attract retail traders, who often follow due to FOMO and momentum-driven sentiment.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A jump in the number of whale addresses has been recorded over the last 2 days | Source: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/app.santiment.net\/charts\/28FXA96m__sCl\" target=\"_blank\">Nansen<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Demand from derivatives traders also appears to have played a significant role in IDEX\u2019s gains today. According to data from CoinGlass, open interest in IDEX futures surged by 185% to $5 million as of press time. Meanwhile, the token\u2019s weighted funding rate has turned negative. This indicates that short sellers are paying long positions to keep their trades open\u2014signaling that many traders are anticipating a short-term pullback in IDEX\u2019s price.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, if the IDEX price continues to rise, this imbalance could trigger a short squeeze, potentially fueling further price appreciation for the token.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, the token\u2019s rally remains at risk owing to the absence of any strong potential drivers, such as any major developments or partnerships in the short term.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">IDEX price analysis<\/h1>\n<p>On the daily chart, IDEX has formed a descending triangle pattern over the last 5 weeks. Such a bearish structure is typically defined by a flat support base and a series of lower highs, which reflect sustained selling pressure and signals more decline ahead.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1827\" height=\"888\" src=\"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1756712286_927_IDEX-price-rallies-50-amid-whale-accumulation-can-it-hit.png\" alt=\"IDEX price has formed a golden cross on the daily chart.\" class=\"wp-image-14410684\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">IDEX price has formed a golden cross on the daily chart \u2014 Sep. 1 | Source: crypto.news<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>However, IDEX invalidated the bearish setup as it broke above the upper trendline of the triangle yesterday, marking the beginning of a potential trend reversal.<\/p>\n<p>Momentum indicators support this bullish breakout. Both the MACD lines and the Relative Strength Index are trending upward, indicating growing positive momentum.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1827\" height=\"888\" src=\"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/1756712286_971_IDEX-price-rallies-50-amid-whale-accumulation-can-it-hit.png\" alt=\"IDEX MACD and RSI chart.\" class=\"wp-image-14410685\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">IDEX MACD and RSI chart \u2014 Sep. 1 | Source: crypto.news<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>More importantly, IDEX has also confirmed a golden cross, as the 50-day simple moving average crossed above the 200-day one. The classic bullish signal typically marks the beginning of a longer-term uptrend.<\/p>\n<p>Based on the height of the triangle and the strength of the breakout, the next likely target for IDEX stands at $0.048, which would represent the projected move based on the breakout from the triangle pattern and implies a 33% jump from current levels. A decisive move above that level could pave the way for a rally toward the $0.050 psychological resistance.<\/p>\n<p>On the contrary, if the hype around whale accumulation fails, IDEX could likely drop to $0.023, which has stood as a strong support level for the last couple of weeks.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<div class=\"cn-block-disclaimer\">\n<div class=\"cn-block-disclaimer__icon\">\n            <svg class=\"icon icon-info\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><use xlink:href=\"#icon-info\"><\/use> <\/svg>        <\/div>\n<p class=\"cn-block-disclaimer__content\">\n            Disclosure: This article does not represent investment advice.
