HBAR/USD (TradingView) Key Technical Levels Signal Caution for HBAR Support/Resistance Analysis: Primary support holds at $0.1354 after successful defense during session lows. Resistance cluster forms between $0.1380-$0.1391 from broken support levels. Immediate consolidation floor established at $0.1357 support zone. Volume Analysis: Breakdown volume at 52.21 million confirms technical failure with 47% spike above average. Late-session volume decline suggests selling exhaustion near current levels. Recent hourly periods show data gaps indicating potential reporting issues. Chart Patterns: Established downtrend shows successive lower highs throughout session. Range-bound trading emerges between $0.1354-$0.1380 boundaries. Oversold bounce potential develops from $0.1354 low test. Risk/Reward Assessment: Resistance target sits at $0.1380 for any technical recovery attempt. Support failure below $0.1354 opens deeper retracement scenarios. Current positioning above $0.1357 offers defensive entry for contrarian plays.
