NEAR has been in a massive uptrend lately, gaining an additional 25% over the past 24 hours to briefly surpass $4.40. As of this writing, it trades at roughly $4.30 (per CoinGecko), up about 120% on a monthly basis.<\/p>\n

Most analysts think the asset is ready to pump even more in the short term, with some anticipating a jump to a new all-time high. On the other hand, two important factors suggest a pullback may also be approaching.<\/p>\n

How Much More?<\/h2>\n

The cryptocurrency market saw another sharp uptick today (September 21), with Bitcoin (BTC) climbing<\/a> to nearly $2,500 and Ethereum (ETH) clearing $2,700. The green wave is perhaps the main catalyst for NEAR\u2019s price ascent, but not the only one.<\/p>\n

Recently, American President Donald Trump vowed<\/a> to create a so-called \u201cAI Force\u201d and appoint an AI czar. Although details are still unclear, the announcement has boosted cryptocurrencies tied to Artificial Intelligence, with NEAR no exception. Prior to that, NEAR Protocol revealed<\/a> on X that users trade perpetual futures by default, a feature provided by Hyperliquid.<\/p>\n

X user Lucky said<\/a> that NEAR holders deserve the latest pump since they have been waiting for such green days for a long time. For his part, Michael van de Poppe described<\/a> the asset\u2019s rise as \u201cfantastic\u201d and stated that he will be \u201cvery pleased\u201d if it breaks through here.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the short term, I doubt it. I think that liquidity will flow towards other narratives that are going to follow NEAR in its footsteps,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The analyst expects the price to consolidate at current levels and even head south to $3 if BTC corrects. After that, though, he anticipates a fresh rally in Q4.\u00a0In a previous post, van de Poppe described<\/a> the digital asset \u201cas one of the easiest ones to hold in this bull market,\u201d saying he has been \u201chappily accumulating\u201d at $1.20-$1.50.<\/p>\n

CryptoBullet was much more bullish, arguing<\/a> that NEAR\u2019s macro structure resembles \u201ca giant double bottom.\u201d The X user set $8 and $20 as the next targets, claiming the token could even skyrocket to a new historic peak of as high as $40.<\/p>\n

The Bearish Factors<\/h2>\n

Earlier today, NEAR\u2019s Relative Strength Index (RSI) spiked above 91, reaching a record high. Such levels signal that the asset has reached extreme overbought territory and could be gearing up for a move south. Later on, the RSI retraced to the current 74, which is still in the bearish zone.<\/p>\n

The token\u2019s recent exchange netflow also suggests that a correction could be on the way. Over the past several days, inflows have surpassed inflows, hinting that some investors have shifted from self-custody to centralized platforms, thereby increasing immediate selling pressure.<\/p>\n
