【What do you think will happen if NEAR drops below $4?】

Here’s something interesting—a guy in the crypto community asked me recently whether I was going to buy the dip on NEAR. I said, “Think it through first. What would you do if it dropped to $4?”

He paused for a moment and said, “Then I’d just keep buying.”

I said, “Wrong. You wouldn’t. You’re saying that now because the price is still above $4.50. When it actually drops below $4, your first thought will be, ‘It’s over—the bottom still isn’t in,’ and then you’ll sit on the sidelines.”

What’s interesting about this conversation? It shows that most people in the market don’t really believe in NEAR’s fundamentals—they’re just waiting for a lower price. And that’s the problem—

My view is that NEAR will trade choppily with an upward bias over the next 7 days. Here’s why:

First, sentiment hasn’t gone crazy yet. The FNG index is at 59, with a weekly average of 57—greedy, but not frenzied. At a real market top, this number needs to break above 80. Ask the people around you right now, and plenty are still debating whether to get in. That hesitation isn’t a bad thing; it means selling pressure hasn’t been released all at once.

Second, it’s down nearly 15% in 7 days—a pretty steep short-term drop. The last time I got burned, back in 2017, I thought it was all over as soon as the market fell. Then the market turned around and taught me a lesson. Being oversold is, in itself, a source of rebound momentum.

Third, trading volume has surged unusually. Big money is making moves at this level—either accumulating or rotating positions. Either way, it means this isn’t a quiet bottom.

Someone asked me, “So how high can it go?” I won’t answer that kind of question. Honestly, I’m not sure either. But I do know one thing: if you’re waiting for it to fall further before buying, you may never get that price—and then you’ll watch it rise and kick yourself.

What’s my own mindset? I’m holding on to part of my core position, while waiting for a better entry with the rest. I’m not going all in, and I’m not sitting entirely in cash. That’s what the market has taught me to do.

What would make me think I was wrong? Simple—if it keeps falling on high volume and breaks below the $4.54 support, that means my reasoning is flawed, and I’ll have to admit it.

What’s your mindset right now? Are you brave enough, interested enough, or itching to get in?
