Price Position and Structural State
DUSK (DUSK) closed at 0.11683 USDT on May 29, 2026, down 5.22%. The asset now sits in a sideways structure near the bottom of its 55-day range. Current 55-day support is near 0.10456 USDT, with resistance near 0.17583 USDT. A daily close below 0.10456 USDT would confirm a downside regime shift. A hold near support would keep price inside the range.
Moving Averages and Trend Context
DUSK is trading below short-term moving averages while still holding above longer-term support. MA100 at 0.11768 USDT may cap short-term recovery attempts, while MA200 at 0.097393 USDT remains the more significant structural support area. The structure resembles a pullback within a broader trend more than a full trend failure.
Trading Friction and Price Efficiency
DUSK shows moderate trading friction, with a 3-day friction score of 42.0. 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 fell -4.96% in one day and remains near the lower side of its 30-day range. This shows participation is weak and exposure is still being reduced.
Funding is positive on the 24-hour average at +0.003265%, with the 7-day average also positive at +0.002761%. This shows sustained long-side cost pressure across both short and medium windows.
The long/short ratio is 0.58, sitting near the lower side of its 180-day range at 6.07%. This means short accounts dominate, with the long/short reading near the low side of recent history.
Correlation, Beta, and Index Relationship
DUSK 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 stable. Over the 180-day window, the relationship is stable.
| Window | Correlation | Beta | R² | Read |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 30D | 0.102 | 0.348 | 0.01 | Weak linkage |
| 60D | 0.114 | 0.306 | 0.013 | Weak linkage |
| 180D | 0.198 | 0.556 | 0.039 | Weak linkage |
Momentum, Volatility, and Indicator Pressure
DUSK is moving more day to day, but participation remains weak. ATR% reads 11.03, near the lower side of its 180-day range, while Bollinger Band width% reads 31.32, close to the bottom of its full historical range. 20-day Volume Z-score is -0.89.
Momentum is weaker. RSI is 37.04, ROC14 is -21.10%, 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. DUSK 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 DUSK, the next structural shift depends on range boundaries. A daily close above 55-day resistance at 0.17583 USDT establishes a bullish regime, while a daily close below 55-day support at 0.10456 USDT confirms a bearish regime.
