Key Takeaways

  • Wave B likely targets $30.15–$31.31 resistance range.
  • Wave C is projected to test the $25.24–$21.53 support zone.
  • The current trend remains bearish unless wave 5’s high breaks.

The chart reflects recent price action, showcasing a corrective ABC structure after a significant five-wave impulse made a new all-time high.

Following the peak at wave 5, the price retraced sharply to form wave A and is now attempting a rebound in wave B. Potential resistance is at key Fibonacci levels.

HYPE Price Analysis

The hourly chart illustrates a five-wave structure, which aligns with the Elliott Wave theory. The price reached a high at wave 5 of $35.20 on Dec. 21 before retracing sharply to test the support trendline. The price fell to retest the ascending support from the ascending channel at $25.

The daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicated oversold conditions, as evidenced by the recent bounce off the lower levels. This suggests a potential for short-term upward movement, and the price recovered to 17%, a high of $29. 

However, the RSI pattern shows weakening bullish momentum during the price rally, implying that the uptrend might be losing strength. The price quickly fell to $27.30 at its lowest point today. 

The price currently hovers near the 0.236 Fibonacci retracement level at $29.36, acting as short-term support. The long-term trendline from waves 1 and 2 remains intact, keeping the bullish trend valid unless the price breaks below this structure.

Key Observations:

  • RSI indicates oversold conditions, suggesting potential short-term recovery.
  • The price respects the ascending trendline and maintains a bullish outlook.
  • A break below the trendline could signal a shift to a bearish phase.

HYPE Price Prediction

The 15-minute chart displays a corrective ABC structure following the five-wave impulse. The price has completed wave A and is in the early stages of wave B, which could retrace to a key Fibonacci level, possibly 0.5, 0.618, of the drop from wave 5 to A.

Our target is $31, but the recovery could end sooner.

The projected path for wave C indicates a potential deeper retracement. The Fibonacci extensions highlight targets for wave C, such as 1.0, 1.272, and 1.618 levels.

The overall trend remains bearish unless wave B invalidates the structure by breaking above wave 5’s high.

Key support levels from the Fibonacci retracements include the prior low of $25.14 and $27.56 (0.236).

Potential resistance levels during wave B include $30.15 (0.5) and $31.31 (0.618), which coincide with the downward trendline from wave 5.

Key Levels to Watch:

  • Support Levels:
    • $27.56 (0.236 Fibonacci retracement)
    • $26.41 (0.382 Fibonacci retracement)
    • $25.24 (prior low)
    • $21.53 (1.0 Fibonacci extension of wave C)
  • Resistance Levels:
    • $30.15 (0.5 Fibonacci retracement of wave B)
    • $31.31 (0.618 Fibonacci retracement of wave B)
    • $32.96 (0.786 Fibonacci retracement of wave B)
