Abstract generation in progress

ATOM-USD saw sharp volatility between 13 August 15:00 and 14 August 14:00, trading between $4.49 and $4.91 with volume spiking to 5.62M units—over 322% above average. After holding in the $4.82–$4.85 range and briefly hitting $4.91, the asset faced an aggressive selloff from 06:00 on 14 August, bottoming at $4.53 at 12:00 on heavy volume, signaling potential capitulation.

Buyers quickly stepped in, establishing fresh support near $4.60 and restoring confidence in the Cosmos ecosystem. This price level became a key threshold as selling pressure eased and trading stabilized.

During the 60-minute recovery window from 13:20 to 14:19 on 14 August, ATOM rose from $4.60 to $4.61, peaking at $4.64 before consolidating in a tight $4.59–$4.62 range. This confirmed $4.60 as a support base, suggesting a potential launch point for future gains.

While resilience is evident, resistance at $4.91 remains untested. Holding $4.60 will be crucial for maintaining bullish momentum, with any breakdown risking renewed downside pressure.
