SUI is trading near $0.9138, after a pullback from a high of $0.9865. The price is testing support near the lower Bollinger Band ($0.9023), following a cooldown after the recent spike in activity. Sui recorded 41 million transactions in 24 hours, surpassing Solana, showcasing growing interest and network utility.

Bollinger Bands and Price Compression
The Bollinger Bands are tightening, with the basis at $0.9339 and the upper band at $0.9655, signaling reduced volatility. A break below the lower band ($0.9022) could trigger further declines, while a reclaim of $0.9339 might lead to a recovery.

RSI and Stochastic: Oversold Conditions
The RSI is at 41.69, showing weak momentum, but the Stochastic Oscillator is deep in oversold territory, suggesting a potential short-term bounce if buyers return.

MACD Bearish, But Flattening
The MACD histogram (-0.0029) remains negative, but the lines are converging, indicating that bearish momentum might be weakening. A bullish crossover could signal a reversal, especially with ongoing positive developments, including recent institutional inflows and network upgrades.

On-Balance Volume (OBV) Decline
The OBV has dropped by -97.42M, indicating sustained selling pressure. However, the Sui blockchain has seen $310 million in inflows recently, suggesting a longer-term bullish outlook.

Support and Resistance Levels
Support: $0.9023 (Lower BB), $0.8800 (psychological level)
Resistance: $0.9339 (BB Basis), $0.9655 (Upper BB)
Short-Term Outlook
SUI is at a critical point near support. If $0.9022 breaks, further downside toward $0.8800 could unfold. However, with oversold conditions, a short-term bounce is possible, especially with Sui’s role as the official partner of Korea Blockchain Week, boosting its visibility and adoption. Watch for a move above $0.9339 as a sign of recovery.
