Hyperliquid price remained close to its record high on Sep. 9 as buyers absorbed an estimated $820 million token unlock, although weakening daily momentum and heavy liquidity near $87–$90 could slow the next advance.
Hyperliquid price consolidates below $90
Hyperliquid (
$HYPE ) price traded at $85.84 at the time of writing on Sep. 9, holding most of its gains after a volatile six-day period. HYPE opened near $81.82 on Sep. 3, placing its net gain at approximately 4.9%.
The token initially climbed to $87.99 before market-wide selling interrupted the advance. HYPE then recovered and reached an all-time high of $89.57 on Sep. 6, showing greater relative strength than several large-cap cryptocurrencies during the broader correction.
Price action has since narrowed between roughly $84 and $88 as traders test demand below the record high. The daily chart shows that buyers have repeatedly stepped in around $84.70–$85, while attempts to hold above $87 have attracted selling.
HYPE’s daily Relative Strength Index stood at 62.98, down from its RSI moving average of 66.88. The indicator remains above the neutral 50 level but shows that bullish momentum has cooled since the record-setting move.
The daily moving average convergence divergence indicator has also weakened. Its MACD line fell to 5.301, below the 5.788 signal line, while the histogram slipped to -0.486. The bearish crossover points to slower short-term momentum rather than a confirmed reversal, as the token remains near its high.
HYPE price faces resistance from $87 to $90
The four-hour chart places HYPE close to its 20-period simple moving average at $85.91. A sustained move above that level could give buyers another opportunity to challenge $87 and the record-high region.
Lower support comes from the 50-period SMA at $84.80 and the 100-period SMA at $83.29. The alignment of the 20-, 50-, 100-, and 200-period averages remains bullish, with each shorter average positioned above the longer one.
The four-hour Aroon Up reading of 64.29% also exceeded Aroon Down at 21.43%. The gap suggests that recent highs still carry more weight than recent lows, although neither reading shows complete control.
