Price Position and Structural State
Vaulta (A) closed at 0.0735 USDT on August 30, 2026, down 3.67%. The asset now sits in a sideways structure inside its 55-day range. Current 55-day support is near 0.05798 USDT, with resistance near 0.08247 USDT. Price is near the middle of the range, so the market has no clear structural edge until it closes outside these levels.
Moving Averages and Trend Context
A is trading above short-term moving averages but remains below longer-term resistance. MA14 at 0.072211 USDT can act as near-term support for the recovery attempt, while MA9 at 0.075173 USDT is the key level to reclaim for a broader trend shift. Short-term structure has improved, but longer-term moving averages still show overhead resistance.
Trading Friction and Price Efficiency
A shows moderate trading friction, with a 3-day friction score of 36.7. The score combines price progress, wick rejection, and volume confirmation. Recent candles show mixed acceptance, so price is moving but still showing some noise. Moves near support or resistance need a cleaner daily close before they carry stronger weight.
Open Interest, Funding, and Positioning
Open interest increased +0.52% in one day, showing some leverage entering the market. OI sits near the middle of its 60-day range, so the move adds leverage from a normal base rather than from a stretched one.
Funding is positive on the 24-hour average at +0.005000%, with the 7-day average also positive at +0.005000%. This shows sustained long-side cost pressure across both short and medium windows.
The long/short ratio is 1.40, sitting near the lower side of its 30-day range at 11.57%. This means long accounts still dominate, but the long tilt is weaker than usual compared with recent history.
Correlation, Beta, and Index Relationship
A remains strongly linked to the broader crypto market (Sigloid Index), with beta showing normal sensitivity to index movements. Correlation confirms that A moves closely with the index, while R² shows that index behavior explains a significant share of its movement. This means broader market direction carries meaningful weight when interpreting A. Over the 30-day window, the relationship is stable. Over the 60-day window, the relationship is stable. Over the 180-day window, the relationship is stable.
| Window | Correlation | Beta | R² | Read |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 30D | 0.734 | 0.958 | 0.539 | Strong linkage |
| 60D | 0.516 | 0.772 | 0.266 | Moderate linkage |
| 180D | 0.645 | 0.874 | 0.416 | Strong linkage |
Momentum, Volatility, and Indicator Pressure
A is showing wider movement, but participation is not fully backing it. ATR% reads 6.01, near the upper side of its 30-day range, while Bollinger Band width% reads 38.76, close to the top of its 180-day range. 20-day Volume Z-score is -0.53, showing slightly below-normal participation.
Momentum is stronger. RSI is 56.68, ROC14 is +20.73%, and MACD histogram is positive. These readings point in the same direction: upside pressure is active across momentum and multi-day acceleration.
The read is still incomplete: momentum is improving, but volatility or participation has not confirmed the move strongly enough.
Broader Market Regime
The Sigloid Index remains in a bullish regime, showing broad strength across the market. A stays closely linked to that market condition, so broader market strength can support price behavior and keep market direction important for this asset.
Key Levels for the Next State Change
For A, the next structural shift depends on range boundaries. A daily close above 55-day resistance at 0.08247 USDT establishes a bullish regime, while a daily close below 55-day support at 0.05798 USDT confirms a bearish regime.
