NEAR Protocol’s Rollercoaster Ride: 3% Decline and Triumphant Recovery!

What to know:

  • NEAR is trading at $2.52, maintaining support above $2.50; a drop below $2.48 could trigger further downside toward $2.34.
  • A bullish breakout above Monday’s high of $2.70 could target $2.91 and $3.12 levels.
  • Strong support zones at $2.48-$2.52 and resistance at $2.57-$2.60 coincide with increased institutional activity and elevated trading volumes.

NEAR lost 3% of its value on Tuesday after demonstrating an impressive recovery at 13:00 UTC, rising from $2.54 to $2.56 in a move that nullified the previous drawdown.

The AI token is currently trading at $2.52 as it continues to hold above the $2.50 level of support. A drop below $2.48 would pave the way for downside extension all the way down to $2.34, which was the base of last Thursday’s rally.

A bullish breakout would occur if prices surpass Monday’s high of $2.70, which was incidentally also the high in June before a major correction. Upside targets above there would be $2.91 and $3.12.
