HYPE is currently around 55.9u, grinding right at the 24-hour low near 55.5.

First, look at the order book. In the spot market, the buy orders in the top 20 levels have piled up to three times the size of the sell orders. This depth is not fake—at the 55.5 level, someone is genuinely standing by to take it. The aggressive buy side has surged for seven hours, making up over 70%—yet the price hasn’t been pushed up much. In plain terms: there are people absorbing, and there are also sellers supplying above, so things are temporarily stuck in a stalemate.

On the big-player side, it’s still the same as before. For the past seven hours, the long/short account ratio has been lifted by nearly 10%. Net long makes up around 60%, consistent with the bullish logic from last week’s article—the big players haven’t pulled out. On the futures side, open interest has shrunk; over a four-hour timeframe the trend is essentially “exhaustion.” The combination of “open interest falling + price hovering at a low level” is more like downside momentum is being released rather than a brand-new wave of dumping.

But the short-term trend hasn’t really been repaired. Out of the last six 4-hour candles, five are bearish. The price is still sitting below the 50 line. Until the 58.5 high is reclaimed, the structure can’t be counted as strengthening.

My stance is slightly bullish, but don’t rush to chase. The big players haven’t dispersed, the bids are thick, and the downside is showing exhaustion—55.5 at this low is worth watching. However, since the trend hasn’t turned, jumping in directly is essentially trading time for space. Wait until volume picks up and price reclaims the 50 line, or pull back to 55.5 and confirm support by not breaking it—then it’s much more comfortable to act. What to do now is simply keep an eye on this low and see how the funds choose next.
