Price Position and Structural State
Across Protocol (ACX) closed at 0.03966 USDT on August 6, 2026, up 1.07%. The asset now sits in a sideways structure near the bottom of its 55-day range. Current 55-day support is near 0.03239 USDT, with resistance near 0.05546 USDT. A daily close below 0.03239 USDT would confirm a downside regime shift. A hold near support would keep price inside the range.
Moving Averages and Trend Context
ACX is trading below all key moving averages, but the weakness is still early rather than deeply stretched. MA9 at 0.040351 USDT stands as the first moving-average resistance area to reclaim. Price sits 4.18% below MA50, within a historical range of -40.99% to 57.53%. The structure is bearish, but downside extension remains inside its normal range.
Trading Friction and Price Efficiency
ACX shows high trading friction, with a 3-day friction score of 30.9. The score combines price progress, wick rejection, and volume confirmation. Recent candles show contested movement, with weak price progress or heavier wick rejection. In this condition, moves near support or resistance carry less weight until price closes more cleanly.
Open Interest, Funding, and Positioning
Open interest fell -16.05% in one day and remains near the lower side of its 60-day range. This shows participation is weak and exposure is still being reduced.
Funding is positive on the 24-hour average at +0.007872%, with the 7-day average also positive at +0.006147%. This shows sustained long-side cost pressure across both short and medium windows.
The long/short ratio is 0.73 and has moved below its 90-day range. This means short accounts dominate, with the long/short reading near the low side of recent history.
Correlation, Beta, and Index Relationship
ACX shows weak linkage to the broader crypto market (Sigloid Index). Correlation is limited, and R² indicates that index behavior explains only a small portion of its movement. This suggests price action is largely driven by asset-specific factors rather than broader market direction. Over the 30-day window, the relationship is stable. Over the 60-day window, the relationship is weakening. Over the 180-day window, the relationship is stable.
| Window | Correlation | Beta | R² | Read |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 30D | 0.167 | 0.209 | 0.028 | Weak linkage |
| 60D | 0.506 | 0.605 | 0.256 | Moderate linkage |
| 180D | 0.244 | 0.504 | 0.059 | Weak linkage |
Momentum, Volatility, and Indicator Pressure
ACX is moving more day to day, but participation remains weak. ATR% reads 9.59, above its 90-day range, while Bollinger Band width% reads 10.62, close to the bottom of its full historical range. 20-day Volume Z-score is 0.62.
Momentum is weaker. RSI is 43.53, ROC14 is -4.13%, and MACD histogram is negative. These readings point in the same direction: downside pressure is active, while recovery pressure remains limited.
The read is cautious: downside momentum is active, but volatility and participation do not confirm a strong break yet.
Broader Market Regime
The Sigloid Index remains in a sideways regime, showing no clear broad market direction. ACX has a weak link to that market condition, so price behavior depends mainly on asset specific structure rather than the broader market.
Key Levels for the Next State Change
For ACX, the next structural shift depends on range boundaries. A daily close above 55-day resistance at 0.05546 USDT establishes a bullish regime, while a daily close below 55-day support at 0.03239 USDT confirms a bearish regime.
