The 15-minute RSI is 77.0 and rising: genuinely overbought, and a warning that chasing the latest impulse can be mistaken for confirmation of the larger trend. With quantum-computing dangers lurking around, Algorand’s (ALGO) defiance from the broader market pierce movement comes due to the strongest position in terms of quantum resistance.

Algorand has been named as one of the frontrunners in the quantum computing hazard prevention schemes by Google. Some of the completed work by Algorand’s Layer-1 chain develops includes the support Falcon signatures, while native Falcon-1024 accounts have been live since August 2026. That also was met with a double-digit uptick.

Historical Pattern Puts $0.25 In Play For Algorand

Algorand’s (ALGO) price hasn’t been there since September 15, 2025. SoSoValue’s stats also point to a 96% drop from the all-time high (ATH) of $3.30, netted more than 7 years ago. A break towards the predicted $0.25 line would take Algorand’s (ALGO) price up 292% from current ranges.

Algorand’s (ALGO) June 2026 roadmap sets broad quantum-computing resilience for the end of 2027. Still listed as research, the full toolkit is set to go live next year, including post-quantum multisig for institutions, treasuries, high-value operations & a post-quantum verifiable random function plus signatures for consensus messaging. That’s confirmed by Algorand’s dev team.

Bears Take a Bite Of Algorand’s Double-Digit Rally

However, the daily upswing on Thursday has turned out to be a bull-trap. Hours after hitting the $0.133 resistance line, Algorand’s price backtracked below the $0.12 level, just above the low-tier Bollinger Band (BOLL), pictured in green. This stands for near-term support, but the whale sentiment-measuring Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) hints at big-time investors selling.

The same can be said for Futures markets. Per CoinGlass, the 24-hour liquidation scales have completely turned around from bullish to bearish. The long Algorand (ALGO) price placements have accounted for $620.6K out of $907.32K in excessively-leveraged liquidations on Thursday. On the other hand, the long versus short ratio kept above 1.01, signaling broader rebound belief.

By Doug Busch Shopify is no longer a pandemic-era growth story that simply failed to slow down. It is compounding at a pace few software platforms its size still manage. In the second quarter of 2026, sales on its platform rose 32%. That was the fifth straight quarter of growth exceeding 30%. Merchants are also using more of Shopify's own tools, from payments to Shop Pay, and new channels like AI shopping agents are starting to increase demand. The simple bull case is that the stock already commands a huge share of independent online commerce, and that position should become more valuable as more buying moves through its checkout. A rule of market mechanics is that the vast majority of an individual security's gain is driven by its underlying sector. Within technology, software has staged a robust recovery, joining semiconductors to power the broader sector higher. The iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF has maintained an upward trajectory since its mid-April lows, though the advance from $74 to $112 has been choppy as bulls repeatedly stepped in to defend when necessary. Breadth across large-cap software has expanded significantly, with 24 constituents surging over 20% over the past three months. During that same three-month window, Shopify generated outstanding relative strength, advancing 36%, more than doubling the IGV's 17% gain over the same period. Expect the stock's outperformance to persist as software momentum broadens. Let's examine the daily and monthly charts to outline the technical drivers behind this thesis. Looking at the daily chart, the ratio chart against the IGV shows persistent outperformance extending back to mid-May. The stock is riding an eight-session winning streak, during which price action cleared a double-bottom-with-handle pivot at $151.39. Within this broader base, the stock recorded a bullish golden cross in late August and successfully filled its Sept. 10 price gap, tracing back to its Aug. 4 session, the day before a powerful earnings reaction sent the stock surging 17% hi
