HBAR’s wild week post-Blackrock buzz: Price trends point to…

The rollercoaster for Hedera is ending as the consecutive declines draw the curtain on a fairy tale trend.

    Hedera Hashgraph has seen a six-day consecutive decline. HBAR might retrace to its old price range soon.

Hedera [HBAR] experienced a surge in price recently, reaching one of its highest points in months. However, once the initial confusion subsided, the price began to retrace, and the heightened sentiment quickly cooled off.

HBAR continues to decline

The Hedera daily price trend exhibited intriguing patterns, which may not be so intriguing for holders. Initially, from 20th to 22nd April, the price followed a relatively stable trajectory, moving from around $0.08 to $0.09.

However, a significant surge occurred on 23rd April, with HBAR witnessing a staggering 73.65% increase, pushing the price to $0.15.

This surge, resembling a parabolic rise, was triggered by a now-deleted Hedera Foundation post announcing a tokenization move involving Blackrock.

Subsequently, on 24th April, the price began to decline, experiencing a 20.58% drop and settling at $0.12. The decline marked the onset of consecutive decreases, bringing the price back to its pre-surge range.

Interestingly, this decline coincided with a clarification post from Archax CEO Graham Rodford regarding the Blackrock tokenization announcement. HBAR traded in the $0.10 price region as of the latest update.

Despite the significant price downturn, HBAR has maintained a bullish trend, albeit weakening, with its Relative Strength Index remaining above the neutral line.
