Hedera (HBAR) Price Climbs, But Diverging Indicators Suggest a Pullback Looms
Despite a recent price increase, Hedera's (HBAR) technical indicators point to weakening demand, signaling a possible pullback unless new momentum emerges.
HBAR has posted a 4% gain over the past seven days, benefiting from the broader rebound across the crypto market over the past few days.
However, despite the price uptick, technical indicators are flashing warning signs that the rally may lack strong support and could witness a reversal.
Hedera’s Rally May Be on Shaky Ground
HBAR’s Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) shows a steady decline even as the token’s price has rallied in recent days. As of this writing, the momentum indicator rests below the zero line at -0.16.
This forms a bearish divergence with the token’s price signaling weakening buying pressure behind the uptrend.

The CMF measures the volume-weighted money flow into or out of an asset over a specific period, helping gauge buying or selling pressure. A bearish divergence occurs when the asset’s price rises while the CMF trends downward, indicating weakening demand and potential for a reversal.
This trend suggests that HBAR’s recent rally is not driven by sustained demand from market participants and risks a correction in the near term.
Moreover, readings from the altcoin’s BBTrend indicator support this bearish outlook. Observed on the one-day chart, the indicator currently sits at -10.16, displaying red histogram bars that have been growing in size with each trading session.

The BBTrend measures the strength and direction of a trend based on the expansion and contraction of Bollinger Bands. When it returns red bars, the asset’s price consistently closes near the lower Bollinger Band. This reflects sustained selling pressure and hinting at the potential for further downside.
In HBAR’s case, the divergence between its price movements and BBTrend confirms that the upward move lacks strong momentum and may be unsustainable.
HBAR at a Crossroads Between $0.166 and $0.188
HBAR currently exchanges hands at $0.18, trading just above the support level at $0.178. If bullish momentum in the broader crypto market fades and demand fails to climb, HBAR’s rally may lose steam. This could potentially push the price below the $0.178 support.

In this scenario, the token could slip further to $0.166.
On the other hand, if fresh demand enters the market, HBAR’s rally could regain strength and climb toward the $0.188 resistance level.

France is engulfed in a new wave of violent protests, with 70,000 security personnel deployed urgently and curfews imposed in multiple cities. Macron admits to mishandling the response.

Once frenzied buying, now the "ammunition warehouse" shrinks by 51 trillion KRW! Korean retail investors can no longer afford to buy
In four months, Korean retail investors' "ammunition stockpile" has dropped by 36.5%, returning to levels seen at the beginning of the year. Although retail investors have collectively made net purchases exceeding 75 trillion won, they are still absorbing the sell-off, but the influx of new funds has dried up, and the replenishment rate lags far behind the consumption rate. Combined with the KOSPI plunging nearly 20% this month, continued net selling by foreign investors, and concerns over AI-related credit risks, the Korean stock market may find it difficult to see a sustained rebound in the short term without support from private investors' funds.
