Chromia (CHR) is trading at $0.019 on Wednesday as the token approached critical support at $0.0185 following a 20.67% weekly decline. Traders are monitoring this level closely because it aligns with long-term descending channel support that has defined a price structure since 2021.
The token recorded $16.28 million in 24-hour trading volume, up 1.07% on the day, while market capitalization stood near $4.89 million, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Despite intraday stability, the broader weekly structure remains under sustained bearish pressure.

Weekly Descending Channel Since 2021 Peak
On the weekly timeframe, CHR continues to move inside a well-defined descending channel that began after its 2021 peak. The pattern shows consistent lower highs and lower lows, confirming sustained macro selling pressure.
Price now sits near the lower boundary of the channel. The $0.0185 level represents horizontal demand and structural channel confluence. If buyers maintain control above this zone, a rebound toward the midline of the channel could develop.
According to the crypto analyst Jonathan Carter, A stronger recovery would require reclaiming higher resistance areas, including $0.1100, $0.2000, $0.3400, $0.5400, $0.7000, and $0.8700. A confirmed breakout above the upper channel boundary would shift long-term structure toward a bullish outlook.
But if the price falls below $0.0185, then the prevailing support scenario would be challenged, and there would be a good chance of a protracted fall.
Break Above $0.150 Signals Reversal
From the TradingView chart, CHR remains in the shadow of all the large simple moving averages. The 20-day SMA is hovering around $0.048, the 50-day SMA is close to $0.074, and the larger periods remain high: the 100-day SMA is around $0.150, and the 200-day SMA is close to $0.1629.
This market positioning suggests bearish momentum and a weak form of the recovery pattern. Until the market price moves above the 20-day and 50-day averages, indications of a market trend reversal remain contained.
The volatility indicators show pressure. The price is hovering around the lower Bollinger Band at $0.0106. This shows that the downside volatility is compressed. If the weakness in the market continues, then the short-term level of support may be between $0.010 and $0.012.
For a sustainable recovery, CHR needs to recover $0.048 and $0.074, accompanied by strong trading volumes. Breaking out into the $0.150-$0.1629 level would be a sign of genuine and sustainable structural change.
