$SUI 1.00The two-bottom test at the gate: after the shorts smash the sell-off, the bulls launch a strong counterattack

Market signals: The 4-hour K-line at 12:00 on October 8 is the key—open at 1.1163, directly dumped to 1.0188, and closed at 1.0261, with single-candle turnover of $237 million. This big bearish candle breaks below all short-term supports with volume expansion, but it does not break the 1.00 psychological level. The very next K-line probes down to 0.9968, yet it still closes back up at 1.0391. Two tests at the bottom, two pullbacks—the presence of buy orders near 1.00 is clearly strong. Current price is 1.0511, up more than 5% from the lows.

Market sentiment: The funding rate is -0.0086%, meaning shorts are paying. This level isn’t extreme, but the direction is clear—bearish sentiment dominates. The issue is that after the shorts hit with $237 million worth of position, the price still failed to break below 1.00. There’s divergence between sentiment indicators and price action; such divergence is often a precursor to a trend change.

Whale activity: The surge on October 4 lifted price from 1.1796 to 1.2645, with daily turnover of $132.8 million—clearly large capital entering. But on October 5 it dropped right away, followed by three consecutive days of slow declines. The sharp sell-off on October 8 looks more like a washout than distribution. If the whales wanted to exit, they wouldn’t buy it back near 1.00. The latest volume ratio is 0.40; the rebound comes on lower volume, suggesting the main players are still observing—no chase higher, but also no further dumping.

Volume-price structure: Over the last 30 K-lines, the high is 1.2645 and the low is 0.9968, with a swing of more than 26%. Starting October 7, selling accelerated—price slid from 1.1776 all the way to 1.0261, for a cumulative drop of nearly 13%. However, during the decline, volume distribution was uneven; the only truly high-volume candle is the one at 12:00 on October 8. This is a typical “sharp sell-off/washout” volume-price profile, not the volume support that usually accompanies a sustained trend drop. During the rebound, volume contraction is happening too—confirmation requires volume to return.

K-line details: The support near the last 10 K-lines is 0.9968, and resistance is 1.1463. With the current two consecutive bullish candles, price rebounded from 0.9968 to 1.0511. The latest K-line at 20:00 on October 8 opened at 1.0391, high 1.0561, low 1.0391, and closed at 1.0511. The body is relatively small, with no obvious upper wick—this suggests the rebound has entered a wait-and-see zone. 1.11–1.12 is the first resistance (dense trading area from October 7 to 8), and 1.1463 is strong resistance. Below, 1.00–1.02 is strong short-term support.

Nini’s plan: Current price is 1.0511. SUI is a Move-language public chain built by former Meta engineers, with a claimed TPS of 200,000. Its ecosystem covers DeFi and GameFi, and CME already has futures. From a technical perspective, the 1.00 double bottom is forming, but since the rebound is on reduced volume, it needs a volume-backed breakout above 1.11 to confirm a reversal. For the short term, watch how price behaves in the 1.11–1.12 resistance zone—if volume supports a breakout, then target 1.1463. If volume fades and price pulls back, keep buying into 1.00–1.02. Slightly neutral to mildly bullish: the double-bottom structure is there, but without volume confirmation, it’s not worth heavy positioning.

If you need a tailored strategy, you can find Nini.
