Price Position and Structural State
Haedal Protocol (HAEDAL) closed at 0.02632 USDT on May 29, 2026, up 0.92%. The asset now sits in a sideways structure near the bottom of its 55-day range. Current 55-day support is near 0.02553 USDT, with resistance near 0.04145 USDT. A daily close below 0.02553 USDT would confirm a downside regime shift. A hold near support would keep price inside the range.
Moving Averages and Trend Context
HAEDAL is trading below all key moving averages. MA9 at 0.027824 USDT stands as the first moving-average resistance area to watch. Price sits 15.89% below MA50, within its historical distance range of -41.98% to 103.28%. The moving-average structure is bearish without showing extreme downside extension.
Trading Friction and Price Efficiency
HAEDAL shows moderate trading friction, with a 3-day friction score of 36.0. 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 -4.27% 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 +0.004718%, with the 7-day average also positive at +0.003104%. This shows sustained long-side cost pressure across both short and medium windows.
The long/short ratio is 2.47, 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
HAEDAL shows a moderate relationship with the broader crypto market (Sigloid Index). Correlation indicates partial co-movement with the index, while R² suggests that index behavior explains only part of its movement. This means broader market direction has some influence, but asset-specific factors remain important. Over the 30-day window, the relationship is strengthening. Over the 60-day window, the relationship is stable. Over the 180-day window, the relationship is stable.
| Window | Correlation | Beta | R² | Read |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 30D | 0.656 | 1.512 | 0.431 | Strong, high beta |
| 60D | 0.449 | 0.974 | 0.202 | Moderate linkage |
| 180D | 0.624 | 0.892 | 0.39 | Strong linkage |
Momentum, Volatility, and Indicator Pressure
HAEDAL's bands are opening, but the move still lacks full support. Bollinger Band width% reads 47.96, above its 90-day range. ATR% reads 7.90, close to the bottom of its full historical range. 20-day Volume Z-score is -0.31, showing near-normal participation.
Momentum is weaker. RSI is 34.86, ROC14 is -18.36%, 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. HAEDAL has a moderate link to that market condition, so broader market moves can influence price behavior, but the effect is not consistent.
Key Levels for the Next State Change
For HAEDAL, the next structural shift depends on range boundaries. A daily close above 55-day resistance at 0.04145 USDT establishes a bullish regime, while a daily close below 55-day support at 0.02574 USDT confirms a bearish regime.
