  • LINK and AVAX stall beneath the 99-period MA, while HBAR sits closest to a bullish reclaim.
  • Panic bars faded into lower turnover across pairs, signaling post-liquidation balance and range compression.
  • LINK needs >$17.80 then $18.30; AVAX needs >$22.30 then $22.90; HBAR needs >$0.173 toward $0.178.

Markets opened with a fast shock and then slipped into compression across three large-cap pairs. Chainlink, Avalanche , and Hedera each traced the same pattern: dump, rebound, and drift. Yet the structure now signals different near-term paths for each chart.

Chainlink (LINK): Rebound Fades Into Compression

LINK printed a sharp intraday dump, then recovered and moved into a narrow band. The 7- and 25-period moving averages are flattening under the 99-period trendline. Therefore, overhead trend pressure remains active while volatility contracts.

Volume spiked on the sell bar and eased during the rebound. That profile fits a digestion phase after forced selling unwound. A clean higher-low base above 17.10 would strengthen the repair case.

Key near-term supports sit at 17.10 and 16.90. Initial resistance aligns at 17.60–17.80 and then 18.10–18.30. A breakout with rising volume would confirm the next impulse and unlock higher bands.

Avalanche (AVAX): V-Rebound, But Moving Averages Still Cap

AVAX dropped vertically near 23:00 and then traced a V-shaped recovery. Price now grinds sideways as Bollinger Bands tighten. All three moving averages sit overhead and slope down, which keeps bias heavy.

Post-shock turnover peaked during the bounce and faded gradually. That fade is typical after a liquidation event resolves. However, a reclaim of the 25-period average would mark the first repair step.

Important supports cluster at 20.60 and 20.20, with the capitulation wick as tail risk. Resistance stands near 22.30 at the 7/25 average cluster, then 22.90–23.30 at the 99-period zone. A band expansion with firm volume should pick direction out of this squeeze.

Hedera (HBAR): Momentum Builds as Structure Tightens

HBAR posted an even sharper wick during the same window and then stabilized. Bollinger Bands ballooned and contracted toward the mid-band, signaling balance. The 99-period average trends down above price but sits within reach.

Volume surged through the flush and normalized quickly afterward. That arc suggests forced flows cooled while responsive bids stepped in. Holding the mid-band and then reclaiming the 25-period average would set a clearer upturn.

Support sits at 0.161–0.164 before the wick zone. Resistance appears at 0.170–0.173 around the moving-average cluster and then 0.178 at the upper band. A stable close above 0.173 would signal momentum shifting toward HBAR.

Outlook: Shock, Then Choice

All three charts show the same template: a flash dump, a strong rebound, and tightening ranges. The next decisive signal is whether price reclaims the 25- and 99-period stacks on rising volume. Without that reclaim, expect two-sided trade inside narrowing bands and frequent fakeouts.

Chainlink needs a steady base to break higher bands. Avalanche requires a reclaim of layered averages to escape supply. Meanwhile, Hedera displays the most constructive sequence and now carries the momentum handoff.
