NEAR Protocol Surges Past $2.19 Resistance on 61% Volume Spike

The cryptocurrency market is showing signs of renewed strength as NEAR Protocol broke through a key resistance level during the final trading hour of July 7. The decisive move came on exceptional volume that was 61% higher than the daily average, confirming the validity of the breakout from an ascending triangle pattern that had been forming throughout the day.

Trading data shows NEAR-USD established strong support in the $2.16-$2.17 range with multiple bounces before finally overcoming resistance at $2.19-$2.20. The breakthrough was particularly notable during the 60-minute period ending at 14:04, when NEAR surged 1.13% from $2.17 to $2.19, forming what analysts describe as a textbook cup and handle pattern.

This technical development comes as the broader crypto market experiences significant momentum, with Bitcoin crossing $109K and approaching its all-time high of $111,970.

The total cryptocurrency market capitalization has expanded to $3.36 trillion on a 40% surge in trading volume, creating favorable conditions for altcoins like NEAR to capitalize on improved market sentiment. Despite NEAR’s positive price action, the asset remains significantly below its all-time high of $20.42 reached in January 2022. Current technical indicators present a mixed picture, with 14 green days out of the last 30, but an RSI of 31.09 suggesting oversold conditions that could support further recovery.

Technical analysis

  • NEAR-USD exhibited notable volatility during the 24-hour period from 6 July 15:00 to 7 July 14:00, with a price range of $2.16 to $2.22, representing a 3.15% swing.

  • The decisive breakout above the $2.19 level, coupled with the formation of a bullish ascending triangle pattern throughout the period, suggests potential for continued upward momentum with the next resistance target at $2.22.
