Hedera (HBAR) is attracting renewed market attention on Sunday, February 22, as the HBAR tests a critical technical boundary on the daily chart.
According to the crypto analyst Profit Demon, price action is pressing against the upper resistance of a descending channel, a formation that has shaped recent trading behavior.
Such structures often signal trend continuation, yet proximity to resistance raises speculation about a momentum shift.
Market participants appear to be positioning cautiously as volatility compresses near channel resistance. Traders frequently interpret this type of setup as a decision point between continuation and reversal.
A confirmed breakout above the descending structure would indicate weakening selling pressure and strengthening demand, potentially altering short-term market structure while inviting fresh speculative interest inflows to intensify.

HBAR Price Signals Possible Breakout Toward $0.255
If bullish momentum is established, analysts are reporting several levels that are considered to be key reaction levels.
Some of the price targets that are commonly mentioned include 0.130, 0.160, 0.185, 0.210, and 0.255 dollars. This is because these levels are considered to be previous consolidation levels, previous liquidity levels, and psychological levels.

However, Profit Demon is reminding investors that the current resistance zones are expected to spark another wave of selling pressure.
Failure to break through the current consolidation pattern might continue the current downtrend, and investors are waiting to see what happens next for Hedera, as the price approaches a critical point in its price movement.
