CryptoFrontNews
POL-1,97%
MNT-0,76%
  • POL price is compressed below a long-standing descending trendline,due to reduced selling pressure as buyers consistently defend the 0.120–0.122 range.

  • Intraday rally from the 0.117 demand zone shifted short-term structure,and established higher lows, a confirmation of acceptance above prior resistance.

  • Despite weekly sector weakness, POL maintains strong trading volume and market ranking, supporting its role as a closely watched Layer-2 asset.

POL price remains at a critical technical zone as traders monitor a potential trendline breakout following weeks of controlled downside pressure. Recent price compression and improving short-term structure have placed the asset at a decision point, attracting close attention across the market.

POL price Approaches Key Technical Inflection

POL price has traded within a clearly defined descending channel on the two-hour chart, reflecting sustained bearish control over recent weeks. Lower highs have consistently formed along a well-respected diagonal resistance, limiting upside attempts and confirming steady distribution.

According to a recent post by ZAYK Charts, price action has compressed tightly below the trendline around the 0.120–0.122 range. This narrowing range indicates reduced volatility that is often seen during late-stage downtrends as selling pressure weakens.

If bulls close above the trendline they would invalidate the current bearish structure and could open room toward the 0.145 resistance zone.

Short-Term Structure Shows Improving Buyer Control

Intraday data shows POL price sweeping liquidity near the 0.1168–0.1170 area earlier in the session. That zone attracted buyers who halted further downside and triggered a sharp upside reaction gradual bounce.

This impulsive rally lifted the price above 0.1210 with strong momentum. The steep ascent suggested that the short covering was followed by aggressive buying,instead of a passive accumulation, that could possibly change short-term sentiment.

The price then consolidated between 0.1200 and 0.1215,and formed higher lows, a sign of acceptance at higher levels. These are zones where buyers defended the structure and denied a full retracement.

Market Context and Sector Positioning

Despite the short-term improvement, POL price remains technically bearish until a confirmed breakout occurs. Rejection at the trendline could still lead to another test of the 0.116–0.114 demand zone, where buyers previously reacted strongly.

ZAYK Charts also noted POL’s broader market standing as the second-largest Layer-2 token by market capitalization. With a valuation near $1.26 billion, POL ranks just behind MNT, reinforcing its relevance despite current price weakness.

Weekly performance shows POL down roughly 6.3%, mirroring losses across the Layer-2 sector. Healthy daily trading volume near $72 million suggests ongoing participation, pointing toward consolidation rather than market disengagement.
