At the time of writing, HYPE, one of the top crypto coins, is trading around $52.6, positioning the investor’s holdings at $107.2 million. This represents a paper profit of nearly $89.8 million and raises the chances of a sizable sell-off.

Meanwhile, another major investor who already realized over $50 million in profits recently opened a 3x leveraged short on 303,901 HYPE, roughly $16 million. Analysts say this move points to growing bearish sentiment in the short term.

Current HYPE Price: A Good Entry Point?

Despite the pressure, HYPE continues near the midpoint of a rising parallel channel that has been in place since late July. Crypto market watchers suggest that if HYPE revisits its channel’s lower boundary, $50 and $47 are key support levels to buy the dip.

Many believe that the ongoing price downturn is offering attractive entry points before a rally. This comes as Hyperliquid prepares to launch its USDH stablecoin, expected to bolster long-term confidence in HYPE price surge.

On the daily chart, the RSI currently hovers around the neutral zone suggesting a tie between bulls and bears.

Meanwhile, the MACD line is narrowing toward the signal line, hinting at weakening bullish momentum. A bearish crossover would confirm short-term downside toward the $50-$47 support zone.

However, if the MACD resumes upward motion, traders could see resistance near $55 and a potential HYPE price surge to $60, the top of the trending channel.
