Analysis
Hamster Kombat down 30.7% in a week – Is there hope for a recovery?
The steady decline in the spot demand meant that Hamster Kombat might struggle to defend the $0.0045 support.
- Hamster Kombat has neutral momentum and a bearish short-term structure.
- An influx of demand and a move above $0.0049 would be a buying opportunity targeting $0.0056.
Hamster Kombat [HMSTR] was in a downtrend on the lower timeframes. Since 28th September, the coin has depreciated by 30.7%. In the past 48 hours, the price has consolidated above the $0.004 support level.
The trading volume of the $300 million market cap token was below average over the previous trading day. This needed to change before a bullish reversal could be expected.
Bearish market structure and range formation

The price move below $0.0046 on Thursday flipped the hourly market structure bearishly. The trend of the past week was also bearish. The OBV was unable to break a local high. This would be the first strong signal that a move upward is likely.
The RSI meandered about the neutral 50 zone in the past two days, showing an indecisive market. A Bitcoin [BTC] turnaround from the $60k support zone could revitalize the altcoin market.
In turn, this could give HMSTR bulls the conviction to go long in larger numbers. A breakout past the $0.0049 and a retest would offer a buying opportunity targeting the series of lower highs Hamster Kombat posted over the past week.
