【Bottom fishing? You might be catching not a knife, but a meat grinder】
A lot of newbies entering the market see NEAR down nearly 91% from its highs and think, "It’s dropped this much, it must be at the bottom, right?" Honestly, I used to think the same way back in the day. I learned the hard way after taking losses that trying to catch the bottom in a downtrend is like trying to catch a flying knife with bare hands—just when you think you’ve hit the floor, there’s a basement beneath it.
Let’s take a look at the data and wake up:
NEAR is currently at $ 1.93, down over 3 points in the last 24 hours, with a drop of more than 16% over the past week and nearly 26% over the month. This isn’t a pullback; it’s sustained selling pressure. What do we mean by selling pressure? It means someone keeps dumping, and they’re doing it in a rhythm—every time there’s a bounce, it becomes an opportunity for them to unload.
But it’s not all bad news. The fear and greed index is at 17, which is in the extreme fear zone. Often, when sentiment hits rock bottom like this, it could be the darkest moment before the dawn. The question, though, is—has the fundamental situation of NEAR fundamentally changed? If the project itself isn’t broken, then the current price might indeed be close to a diamond bottom.
One more thing to keep an eye on: trading volume has recently surged, exceeding 5% of market cap. Large funds moving in this context either mean they’re quietly accumulating at lower levels or they’re accelerating their exit. This signal is crucial.
Currently, key support is at $ 1.89; if it breaks below, we might have to test lower ranges. Resistance above is at $ 2.04, and only if it can hold that level can we hope to reverse the downward trend.
My judgment: short-term bearish, medium to long-term is worth watching, but I wouldn't advise going heavy into a position right now.
What’s your signal direction?
A. Bullish signal - Already positioned
B. Bearish signal - Continue watching, no entry
C. Wait-and-see signal - Hold off until direction is clearer
