A promising week indeed!
Over the last seven days, AVAX’s price spiked twice. The price surge was accompanied by an increase in AVAX’s DyDx funding rate, indicating higher demand in the derivatives market. AVAX’s Binance funding rate also registered an uptick, which established its demand in the futures market.
Positive sentiments around AVAX also spiked, reflecting the crypto community’s faith in the token. Moreover, LunarCrush’s data revealed that Avalanche’s market dominance increased by 9% during the last week.

The weather is changing
The good times, however, seemed to be ending as AVAX’s price declined by 4% in the last 24 hours. Most market indicators revealed that bears had entered the market, which could lead to a price decline over the coming days. Moreover, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) was just near the overbought zone.
AVAX’s Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) went down and was resting below the neutral mark, which was a development in the sellers’ favor. In addition, the MACD displayed the possibility of a bearish crossover, further increasing the chances of a continued downtrend.
