Price Position and Structural State
Sui (SUI) closed at 0.9046 USDT on May 29, 2026, down 2.64%. The asset now sits in a sideways structure near the bottom of its 55-day range. Current 55-day support is near 0.8357 USDT, with resistance near 1.414 USDT. A daily close below 0.8357 USDT would confirm a downside regime shift. A hold near support would keep price inside the range.
Moving Averages and Trend Context
SUI is trading below all key moving averages. MA100 at 0.966606 USDT stands as the first moving-average resistance area to watch. Price sits 10.01% below MA50, within its historical distance range of -43.54% to 78.67%. The moving-average structure is bearish without showing extreme downside extension.
Trading Friction and Price Efficiency
SUI shows moderate trading friction, with a 3-day friction score of 48.1. 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 -3.27% in one day, showing clear position reduction. OI sits near the middle of its 60-day range, so the move reduces leverage from a normal base rather than clearing an already crowded leverage base.
Funding is positive on the 24-hour average at +0.001349%, with the 7-day average also positive at +0.003343%. This shows sustained long-side cost pressure across both short and medium windows.
The long/short ratio is 1.89, 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
SUI remains strongly linked to the broader crypto market (Sigloid Index), with beta indicating higher sensitivity to index movements. Correlation confirms that SUI moves in line with the index, while R² shows that index behavior explains a significant share of its movement. Elevated beta means price tends to amplify broader market moves rather than simply track them. 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 | 0.768 | 2.436 | 0.591 | Strong, high beta |
| 60D | 0.764 | 1.62 | 0.584 | Strong, high beta |
| 180D | 0.871 | 1.332 | 0.759 | Strong, high beta |
Momentum, Volatility, and Indicator Pressure
SUI is moving more day to day, but participation remains weak. ATR% reads 7.73, above its 60-day range, while Bollinger Band width% reads 40.56, near the middle of its full historical range. 20-day Volume Z-score is -0.33.
Momentum is weaker. RSI is 36.67, ROC14 is -17.67%, 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. SUI 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 SUI, the next structural shift depends on range boundaries. A daily close above 55-day resistance at 1.414 USDT establishes a bullish regime, while a daily close below 55-day support at 0.8357 USDT confirms a bearish regime.
