Initial selling pressure drove prices from $0.1755 to $0.1726, followed by a recovery attempt to $0.1763 before renewed distribution pushed prices to session lows of $0.1721. The failure to hold above $0.1740 support signaled broader bearish control despite bounce attempts.

  • Primary support holds at $0.1700 psychological level, with resistance confirmed at $0.1783 after multiple rejection attempts.
  • Volume activity runs 28.69% above 7-day average but remains below 30-day threshold, suggesting routine distribution rather than institutional buying.
  • Downtrend structure forms with lower highs and lower lows, and the $0.1740 support break confirms a bearish momentum shift.
  • Immediate resistance is at $0.1750, with downside risk extending toward $0.1700 support aligned with the previous 24-hour consolidation zone.
