【UNI Up 36% in a Week: The Squeezed-Up Market Is About to Break—Who’s Holding It Back, and Who Will Be the One Left Holding the Bag?】
Let me tell you something interesting.
A week ago, UNI was still hovering around the 6-range. A month ago it was even lower. Back then, I was chatting with a friend and said, “This level is really cheap—no one believes me.”
So what about now? In one week, it’s up 36%, over 7 days.
Today the price is still hovering near 9, down 0.5% over the last 24 hours. It looks like it might pull back, but the trading volume is absolutely huge—more than 5% of market cap. This kind of volume isn’t something retail traders can push out.
Let me walk you through the technicals:
On the daily chart, the upward structure hasn’t broken yet. Each recent high keeps getting higher, but lately this candle is starting to look uncertain. The 4H timeframe is even clearer: price has been repeatedly tug-of-warring around 9. 9.89 is the recent high, and it’s also the position where the shorts are fiercely defending. The 1H timeframe is the most tangled—it’s the classic kind of consolidation you see right before a direction is chosen.
What are both sides watching right now?
The longs are watching support at 8.51. If that breaks, the whole upward structure will need to be re-evaluated.
The shorts are watching 9.89. If price breaks above it, the area in front is the big short territory left over from the ATH drop—hard to fight.
The sentiment is interesting too. FNG is at 78—Extreme Greed—but the weekly average is only 63. That suggests this wave of sentiment is rising very fast, not slowly grinding up; it’s more like some day suddenly a big surge happened and dragged it higher. Whether this sentiment can keep going depends on whether real “cash and bullets” follow through.
Here’s the part I care about more: Binance just acquired $100M worth of Circle’s stake, and the USDC setup is set to expand. As a governance token for Binance DEX, does UNI have anything to do with this? It’s related—and a lot. When the DEX ecosystem grows, UNI’s logic makes sense. I’m not saying you should buy and expect it to pump right now, but this direction is definitely worth watching.
At this point, both bulls and bears are waiting for signals. To break upward past 9.89, it needs volume—needs the sentiment to keep intensifying. To break downward past 8.51, it needs macro factors or some sudden negative catalyst.
I’m leaning upward, but the prerequisite is that the volume keeps up.
Do you think this is a “squeezed” move, or is there actually substance behind it?
