đ€ Everyone Expects PI Price to Crashâbut Hidden RSI Divergence Hints at Surprise Reversal
The Pi coin looks like itâs collapsing. However, a hidden divergence between PI price and momentum suggests otherwise.
As exchange inflows rise and traders pile into shorts, a quiet reversal pattern is forming.
đž Exchange-Based Caution Remains High
Pi coinâs exchange reserves have significantly surged over the past two months, with recent spikes showing large inflows to trading platforms. This typically indicates that holders are preparing to sell, not hold.
The most recent table shows exchange net inflows outweighing outflows across major CEXs. Thatâs a caution flag for bulls.
đž Funding Rates Stay Deep in Negative Territory
Funding rates on PI perpetual contracts are still firmly negative. That means traders holding long positions are being paid by those shorting PI, a sign that bearish conviction is high.
Funding Rate reflects the cost of holding long vs. short positions in perpetual futures. A negative reading indicates traders are mostly short and paying to maintain bearish exposure.
đž Weak Bulls, But No Capitulation Yet
The Elder Ray Index paints a confusing picture. Bulls remain mostly muted, and Bear Power is still showing consistent red bars. Yet, these bars are without fresh spikes, a trend that might just lead to some optimism.
The Elder Ray Index is used to measure the strength of buyers and sellers by comparing price action to an exponential moving average. In PIâs case, the bulls are struggling to sustain momentum.
đž Hidden Bullish Divergence Gives Bulls a Slim Hope
The one glimmer of optimism comes from the Relative Strength Index (RSI). While PIâs price has made consecutive lower lows, RSI has been printing higher lows, a textbook hidden bullish divergence. This often signals that bearish pressure is weakening, even if the price hasnât reacted yet.
The Relative Strength Index tracks momentum. When price falls but RSI rises, a hidden bullish divergence occurs, often a sign of an upcoming reversal.
