Hedera price still holds a faint hope for a rebound — but the bar has been set low. After a steady week of declines, the token trades near $0.16, showing little energy to move higher. The market mood has weakened, and confidence among traders continues to slip.
For now, only one potential signal stands between HBAR and deeper losses, keeping hopes alive in what has become an increasingly bearish setup.
Bearish Indicators Stack Up: Weak Retail Flow and Fading HypeThe biggest warning sign for HBAR sits right on the daily chart — a looming death cross between the 100-day and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). EMAs smooth out price data to show broader market direction, and a “death cross” forms when the shorter-term average dips below the longer-term one. It often signals that selling could accelerate if the cross completes.

Money Flow Index (MFI), which tracks the flow of money in and out of an asset using both price and volume, supports the weakness. Since mid-July, MFI has been trending lower. It stood near 55 in early October and has now dropped to 36, showing that retail traders are no longer buying dips at a decent pace.
Social data adds to the slowdown. HBAR’s social dominance, which measures its share of total crypto discussions, hit a weekly peak of 1.49% on October 22 as excitement briefly spiked over ETF filings that featured HBAR.
