Key Takeaways
HYPE is up ~6% today and nearly 27% on the month despite broader market weakness
Price bounced strongly from the critical $28.20 demand zone
HYPE is trading inside a right-angled ascending broadening wedge on the 4H chart
Reclaiming the 100-MA near $31.70 could trigger a move toward $46
A breakdown below $28.20 would invalidate the bullish structure
HYPE, the native token of Hyperliquid — one of the fastest-growing decentralized perpetual trading platforms — is once again showing notable relative strength despite the broader crypto market softness.
While many altcoins remain under pressure, HYPE surged nearly 6% today, extending its monthly gains to 27%. More importantly, the latest price action suggests this move could have more room to run, as the token rebounds cleanly from a critical support zone.

On the 4-hour chart, HYPE is trading inside a right-angled ascending broadening wedge — a high-volatility structure that often precedes strong directional moves.
After a sharp upside push, HYPE faced rejection near the wedge’s upper resistance around $38, triggering a swift 25% pullback. That correction drove price straight into a key demand region near $28.20.
This area proved decisive.

Buyers stepped in aggressively, defending the zone and forcing a rebound back toward $31.15, with price now hovering just below the 100-period moving average near $31.70. Throughout this wedge formation, the $28.20 region has repeatedly acted as a strong defense layer, reinforcing its importance as higher-timeframe support.
The quick reaction from this level signals that dip buyers remain active — a constructive sign for bulls.
From a technical standpoint, the structure remains constructive.
If HYPE can hold above the rising support trendline and successfully reclaim the 100-MA, momentum could shift back in favor of buyers. That would likely open the door for a recovery toward the wedge’s upper boundary near $46.0.
A confirmed breakout from this right-angled ascending broadening wedge would be a strong bullish signal, potentially accelerating upside continuation as volatility expands.
However, bulls still need follow-through.
Failure to reclaim the moving average or sustained weakness below current levels could invite another test of demand.
The bullish setup hinges on the $28.20 support zone.
If HYPE loses this level decisively, the wedge structure would be invalidated, increasing the risk of bearish continuation and opening the door to deeper downside.
For now, though, price is reacting exactly where buyers previously stepped in — keeping the short-term outlook cautiously optimistic.
