Recently, API3 has experienced a rapid surge driven by OEV narratives, soaring from 0.5083 all the way to the strong resistance zone of 0.50-0.55, with a typical V-shaped reversal pattern on the daily chart. It seems promising, but there are many underlying issues.



From a technical perspective, this rally clearly lacks volume support. The RSI indicator has shot into the overbought territory, and the price has deviated significantly from the 200-day moving average. Such a volume-less straight ascent is rarely sustainable in history—usually, after emotional hype, it stalls and weakens.

More notably, the current price has moved far away from the value center around 0.40. According to mean reversion logic, such an extreme deviation will eventually be corrected. The market is currently in a typical sentiment premium stage, with the main force creating false breakouts in the 0.5050-0.5250 range. Once the bullish momentum begins to fade, it will be difficult to sustain further price increases.

If this situation reverses, there will be considerable room for a decline. In the short term, 0.4450 acts as a support, with 0.4000 below. If a panic sell-off occurs, 0.3720 could even become a deeper correction point. After market optimism is realized, it often marks the beginning of risk release. At this point, it’s more prudent to go short on rallies, waiting for the price to naturally fall back, which is a safer trading strategy.

The straight surge of the unlimited token is the easiest to get caught off guard. This wave of API3 clearly has the flavor of emotional panic selling.

Another wave of price surge with no volume. I'm too familiar with this trick; in the end, it's always the bagholders who end up paying the price.

Unlimited straight line pull, isn't this just the main force hyping up? It will inevitably catch up and drop later.

Once again, it's the same mean reversion argument... But I have to admit, a straight surge with high volume can't last long. I like the idea of shorting on rallies; I just always feel that the main players will reverse and take profits. API3's recent move feels a bit weak; let's wait for the dip to be filled.

Uh... another endless surge, I've seen this trick many times. The RSI is already overbought, and you still dare to chase, no wonder you're getting cut.

Hey, RSI overbought doesn't scare me. Anyway, it's already overextended on the upside. I've been adding to my position and waiting to break even. Haha, what about the no-volume straight up surge? The bears are just spreading rumors again. OEV narrative is the future. Just wait and see the bull market. 0.40 value center? That's hilarious. It's a story made up by the bears. I don't believe this dip will be filled this time. Actually, now is a smarter time to buy the dip than waiting for a pullback. If you miss it, it's really gone. Holding onto your faith is the real winning strategy. Talking about 0.3720? I already deleted my stop-loss. Anyway, I will recover my investment sooner or later, no matter how long it takes.

The unlimited straight-line surge, this routine is so familiar, just waiting to be cut off.

I've seen this straight-line surge pattern many times before. Just wait to be cut.

The straight-line surge of Wulian is a common tactic; just sit back and watch the show.
