Analysis

NEAR shows the first signs of trend reversal according to Michaël van de Poppe, who targets a decisive move above $1.77 that opens the path to the $2.20 zone.

Price action at the higher-timeframe support now aligns with a bullish MACD golden cross, and the trader expects momentum to accelerate once the $1.85 area is reclaimed, setting up a run toward $2.40 before year-end. NEAR price prediction models will now focus on whether this higher low holds after the prolonged correction.

With NEAR at $1.7 testing upper Bollinger resistance at $1.69 while the EMA50 at $1.64 acts as concrete support and the EMA200 at $1.73 caps upside, the neutral RSI at 63.39 combined with the MACD golden cross suggests a healthy retracement to the 50-EMA before continuation rather than immediate exhaustion.
