While consolidation typically signals accumulation, in NEAR&#8217;s case, it suggests an impending distribution.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">Should this distribution phase take place, NEAR might target two potential price levels: initially at $3.833, and if selling pressure persists, a further drop to $3.494.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">If the anticipated distribution scenario does not materialize, NEAR is likely to stay within its current trading range. Therefore, other onchain metrics are being examined to predict NEAR&#8217;s next market movement.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Concerns Arise as Trader Loss Imbalance Points to Active Sellers<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">Coinglass reports a significant imbalance between short and long liquidations in the last 24 hours, with $388.22k worth of NEAR liquidated, of which $377.36 thousand came from long positions, while only $10.86 thousand was attributed to short positions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">This imbalance suggests a downward trend, as the side with fewer liquidations\u2014short traders in this case\u2014tends to dictate market direction.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">Furthermore, the Weighted Funding Rate has decreased significantly, indicating that short positions are outstripping long positions amidst prevailing bearish sentiment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">The Weighted Funding Rate represents the average funding rate across exchanges, adjusted for the size of Open Interest, reflecting the cost associated with holding long or short positions in perpetual futures contracts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">If bearish traders continue to dominate the liquidation imbalance and the Weighted Funding Rate keeps dropping, NEAR could see further declines from its current trading range.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Modest Signs of Potential Recovery<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">Amid the prevailing bearish sentiment, there is a chance for NEAR to rebound from the support level within the consolidation channel, expanding its trading range within this channel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">This potential resurgence is indicated by the formation of Parabolic SAR dots below NEAR&#8217;s price, signaling a bullish market outlook.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">This indicates that some traders are actively purchasing NEAR at the current levels.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s3\">Should these dots persist, NEAR could maintain its position within the consolidation phase and potentially break out from it if market sentiment shifts positively.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEAR Protocol [NEAR] has shown a bearish trend across various timeframes, experiencing a 6.00% decrease in the last month and a 7.85% drop in the past week.
