The post Hyperliquid Price Surges Past 200-Day SMA, Traders Target $41.76 Resistance? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
As someone closely watching the crypto space, it’s hard not to get excited about Hyperliquid’s latest news. HYPE price just leapt 9.45% in one day, reaching $38.02, driven by a wave of bullishness tied to both institutional money and whale trading activity.
The core catalyst? Hyperliquid Strategies Inc. filed an S-1 with the SEC, intending to raise up to $1 billion through a hefty 160 million share offering. Their stated plans to potentially use part of the fund for $HYPE token purchases instantly caught attention.
HYPE Price Analysis
The technicals for HYPE paint an interesting picture. Having reclaimed its 200-day SMA at $37.41 after a successful test of the 61.8% Fib retracement level at $35.84, HYPE price has recovered impressively from recent lows ($34.60). It is now challenging the day’s high at $38.38. The RSI 14 at 38.79 signals a classic oversold bounce. Meanwhile, the MACD indicator, even though in a bearish crossover, is showing some hesitation on the downside.
Short-term traders seem to have capitalized on the oversold setup. For the momentum to really steam up, HYPE needs to close above $41.76. Staying above the 200-day SMA builds confidence that institutional participation could yield further rallies. With whales piling into large leveraged longs, volume has spiked, reflecting a market eager for a trend reversal?
Hyperliquid Open Interest Update
Spotting what’s happening with Hyperliquid’s futures open interest gives another layer to this story. Lately, as per CoinGlass, open interest surged past $2 billion before cooling near $1.5 billion, mirroring big swings in HYPE’s price.
That means more traders are positioning for volatility, amplifying market excitement. Historically, these open interest spikes coincide with price rallies, as seen throughout August and September. Fresh leveraged long builds by whales further signal strong faith in future upside, keeping sentiment alive and risk firmly in play.
FAQs
