Michaël van de Poppe sees NEAR setup as constructive after the market dip, with immediate bounce and consolidation signaling renewed strength. Bitcoin consolidation is channeling flows back into prior leaders, positioning NEAR for a push toward recent highs within weeks alongside names like HYPE.

Price sits at $2.16 inside the Bollinger Bands on the 4h chart, testing toward upper resistance at $2.28 while the lower band at $1.78 caps downside volatility. The EMA50 at $2.19 acts as immediate resistance above current levels, with the EMA200 at $2.03 providing deeper structural support in the prevailing bearish trend. Neutral RSI at 52.16 combined with the MACD golden cross at -0.01 suggests momentum is shifting, favoring a brief pullback to the 50-EMA before continuation.
