Price Position and Structural State
dYdX (DYDX) closed at 0.1225 USDT on October 15, 2026, down 4.07%. The asset now sits in a sideways structure inside its 55-day range. Current 55-day support is near 0.1016 USDT, with resistance near 0.1583 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
DYDX is trading below short-term moving averages while still holding above longer-term support. MA50 at 0.127036 USDT may cap short-term recovery attempts, while MA100 at 0.122333 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
DYDX shows moderate trading friction, with a 3-day friction score of 53.5. 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 -8.01% in one day and remains near the lower side of its 180-day range. This shows participation is weak and exposure is still being reduced.
Funding is positive on the 24-hour average at +0.004996%, with the 7-day average also positive at +0.005443%. This shows sustained long-side cost pressure across both short and medium windows.
The long/short ratio is 1.75, showing more long accounts than short accounts. It sits near the middle of its 60-day range, so this is a long tilt without clear historical crowding.
Correlation, Beta, and Index Relationship
DYDX remains strongly linked to the broader crypto market (Sigloid Index), with beta showing normal sensitivity to index movements. Correlation confirms that DYDX 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 DYDX. 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 | 0.702 | 1.326 | 0.492 | Strong, high beta |
| 60D | 0.658 | 0.994 | 0.433 | Strong linkage |
| 180D | 0.315 | 0.697 | 0.099 | Moderate linkage |
Momentum, Volatility, and Indicator Pressure
DYDX is moving more day to day, but participation remains weak. ATR% reads 9.00, near the lower side of its full historical range, while Bollinger Band width% reads 22.00, near the lower side of its full historical range. 20-day Volume Z-score is -0.16.
Momentum is weaker. RSI is 41.71, ROC14 is -19.83%, 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. DYDX stays closely linked to that market condition, so changes in market sentiment can still influence price behavior even when the broader trend is unclear.
Key Levels for the Next State Change
For DYDX, the next structural shift depends on range boundaries. A daily close above 55-day resistance at 0.1583 USDT establishes a bullish regime, while a daily close below 55-day support at 0.1016 USDT confirms a bearish regime.
