NEAR: Trader Rotates Out After 170% Run

Michaël van de Poppe scaled out of NEAR after a 170% advance, rotating capital into two fresh positions that already offset the 25% pullback in NEAR while his altcoin book recovered from -75% to -50% drawdown.

Price sits at $2.39 inside the Bollinger Band with upper resistance at $2.52; the neutral RSI(14) at 51.44 and MACD golden cross keep the broader bullish structure intact above the EMA50 at $2.34, yet a measured retracement toward that level remains the highest-probability path before any extension higher. Portfolio rotation strategy discipline now overrides instinct, exactly the edge required to survive the 30-80% corrections that define every cycle and to refine NEAR price prediction models during periods of crypto market crash volatility and shifting AI industry impact flows.
