For the last few months, HYPE has been under significant selling pressure, forming a series of lower highs and lower lows. However, more recent candles imply that the downside momentum may be waning and that there is potential for HYPE to consolidate above an important historical support area. At press time, the coin is trading at $26.88  with an increase of 0.1% over the past 24 hours.

Momentum Signals Hint at Seller Fatigue

According to the TradingView chart, HYPE has been moving down inside a downward-sloping channel since Q3, and recently, it bounced off support at the $24.50-$25.00 zone. Now appears to be trying to regain the $26.80-$27.00 range, which is currently a major horizontal support/resistance level in the short term.

Momentum indicators have shown early signs of positive momentum; for example, MACD has flipped to positive for the first time in weeks while RSI is slowly moving toward the neutral 50 level. A daily close above the descending trend line would demonstrate continued structural strength.

The $33-$35 zone remains a large overhead resistance zone, as identified on the chart, thus this would be a key area for potentially further price movement if price can break out above $27.50 and trend line resistance.

Social Media Posts Reinforce Key Technical Levels

Providing additional background information about the market, the recent update on X by the user named Crypto Bull demonstrates that, if the structural conditions improve, $35 will be a key level for potential upside moves. Because the market commentary has indicated that this level is a very important area.

In conclusion, Completion of the transition phase is what we have at this time for HYPE instead of a definitive trend change. Therefore, it is critical that it maintains above its previous support area of $25.

Additionally, it would need to successfully reclaim the former resistance level to reach sustainable, continued higher target prices. If it fails at this, then the coin remains at risk of declining.

Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps

The post Fed Makes First Rate Cut of the Year, Lowers Rates by 25 Bps appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Federal Reserve has made its first Fed rate cut this year following today’s FOMC meeting, lowering interest rates by 25 basis points (bps). This comes in line with expectations, while the crypto market awaits Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s speech for guidance on the committee’s stance moving forward. FOMC Makes First Fed Rate Cut This Year With 25 Bps Cut In a press release, the committee announced that it has decided to lower the target range for the federal funds rate by 25 bps from between 4.25% and 4.5% to 4% and 4.25%. This comes in line with expectations as market participants were pricing in a 25 bps cut, as against a 50 bps cut. This marks the first Fed rate cut this year, with the last cut before this coming last year in December. Notably, the Fed also made the first cut last year in September, although it was a 50 bps cut back then. All Fed officials voted in favor of a 25 bps cut except Stephen Miran, who dissented in favor of a 50 bps cut. This rate cut decision comes amid concerns that the labor market may be softening, with recent U.S. jobs data pointing to a weak labor market. The committee noted in the release that job gains have slowed, and that the unemployment rate has edged up but remains low. They added that inflation has moved up and remains somewhat elevated. Fed Chair Jerome Powell had also already signaled at the Jackson Hole Conference that they were likely to lower interest rates with the downside risk in the labor market rising. The committee reiterated this in the release that downside risks to employment have risen. Before the Fed rate cut decision, experts weighed in on whether the FOMC should make a 25 bps cut or…
