Alt Coin News: Huobi Soars up to 12%
Why is Huobi Token's price up 12% today when the rest of the market is falling?
As Huobi Global launches SEAN spot trading, the HT price continues to rise, but the rally may not last long as technical indicators become negative.
One of the few cryptocurrencies defying the overall slump is Huobi Token, which has increased by 12% over the past 24 hours.
The price of HT, which is currently trading at over $7, has increased by more than 80% since the start of this week, making this its greatest weekly performance since February 2021.
The introduction of Starfish Finance (SEAN) spot trading on Huobi Global's platform and HT's intraday gains are related events.
Additionally, About Capital Management had a role in HT's strong weekly gains. This Hong Kong-based investment company revealed on October 8 that it has acquired Huobi Global, one of the top bitcoin exchanges by volume.
A utility token in the Huobi Global network is HT. On October 10, Justin Sun, the creator of the Tron blockchain project and presumably the primary supporter of About Capital, declared that they would give HT the authority to advance Huobi Global's brand and commercial operations.
However, a variety of technical indications suggest that the HT price increase has made it vulnerable to various scenarios of profit-taking.
This week's HT price increase coincides with a decline in trading volume, indicating that investors have been increasingly pessimistic about the uptrend's durability. Once more, it can cause a price adjustment in the upcoming days.
Notably, the price of HT is currently testing a confluence of resistance composed of its 50-week exponential moving average (50-week EMA; the red wave), the 0.786 Fib line around $7.30, and a horizontal level near $7.40 that formerly functioned as support but is now acting as a price limit.
