NEAR/USD – Daily Chart
The daily chart for NEAR/USD reveals an ongoing short-term pullback into a critical demand zone.
Price action confirms a bullish breakout from a descending trendline that previously capped gains from March through April. Following this breakout, NEARUSD surged past the $2.500 and briefly tested above $3.000, forming a bullish structure.
The current pullback appears to be retesting the breaker block which may now serve as a strong demand zone. This retest aligns with the classic breakout-retest-continuation pattern, strengthening the bullish case.
What is the next move for NEARUSD?
If NEARUSD holds above the breaker block, the next projected target lies around the $3.560 resistance, followed by a medium-term move toward $4.530 and potentially $4.700. A clean break above $3.560 could trigger a fresh leg upward, driven by momentum traders and swing buyers. As long as the price stays above the $2.220 support level, the bullish trajectory remains intact, with a long-term bullish extension pointing toward the $6.490 level.
