- Breakout & Retest: HBAR broke out of a long downtrend channel and is now retesting the breakout zone; holding above $0.19 could signal a move toward $0.27–$0.40.
- Bullish Structure Intact: Analysts note higher highs and higher lows remain in place; a strong green candle from current levels could trigger the next rally.
- $0.40 Target: Both analysts, Jake Gordon and Trade4ddict, point to $0.40 as the next major upside target if momentum holds.
Hedera (HBAR) looks like it’s gearing up for something big. Analysts are starting to catch on too, spotting what could be the beginning of a bullish breakout — and they’re not keeping quiet about it. One of them, Jake Gordon (@mrjakegordon), flagged an interesting setup on the 2-day chart that’s got smart money paying close attention.
Breakout Watch: Smart Money Eyes the Retest
Jake tracked HBAR as it bounced around inside a downtrend channel from late 2024 to April 2025. That channel? Pretty textbook — resistance up top, support down below. For months, price just ping-ponged inside that box.
Then May 2025 came, and boom — HBAR broke out of that channel, punching above the resistance line. That kind of move? It usually means something’s changing. Now we’re in the retest phase, where the price comes back to test that old resistance (now support). Jake says this is normal, even healthy.
“This is when weak hands panic… and smart money leans in,” he tweeted. Traders who missed the first move are circling back, watching to see if a bullish candle forms here. If it does, that could be the green light.
Jake’s chart also outlined the setup clearly: under $0.19 is the danger zone. But if things hold, the price could climb into the $0.27–$0.40 range. He even teased a $1+ target long-term, if the market stays hot.
FVG + Swing Structure Still Bullish
Another analyst, @Trade4ddict, chimed in too. He looked at the daily chart and focused on Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) and swing structure. HBAR’s price had moved too fast through a zone earlier, leaving behind a gap — that green rectangle under the current candles. These zones often act as support when price circles back.
And guess what? That’s where HBAR is now.
More importantly, HBAR already pushed past $0.20 before pulling back, forming a higher high. As long as it doesn’t break below the previous swing low, the bullish sequence — higher highs and higher lows — stays intact.
What traders want to see now is a solid bullish trend bar. If a strong green candle closes from this level, it might be the signal for another leg up. That’s when holders might load up — or new buyers might jump in.
Target? Still $0.40, which would edge out the highs from February 2025.
So yeah, nothing confirmed yet, but the setup’s getting interesting. If HBAR plays this right, it could be the beginning of something bigger.
