RIVER hits the $25 liquidity high, after a 55% rebound, the bulls and bears battle intensifies

February 14 News, the cross-chain liquidity protocol token RIVER continued its strong volatility this week. Previously, the price surged above $23, reaching a high of $24.2 on February 12, then quickly retreated by about 18.9%, falling to $19.62. Despite the pullback, this rally still resulted in a cumulative rebound of over 55% within a week, indicating that short-term funds remain actively deploying.

Structurally, the daily fluctuation pattern still leans toward a bearish trend. The previous low of $16.1 has been broken, MACD remains below the zero line, suggesting that medium-term momentum has not fully reversed. Meanwhile, the CMF reading dropped to -0.36, reflecting significant capital outflow pressure in the market, which means that chasing the rally requires caution.

However, during the retracement from its all-time high, RIVER has left a clear supply and demand imbalance zone on the chart. The $26–$33 and $35–$40 ranges are viewed as important supply zones that may attract price testing in the future. The liquidation heatmap shows that the most concentrated liquidity magnet zones are around $15 and $25, with $25 regarded as a short-term key level separating bulls and bears.

If the bulls regroup and push the price above $25, the market could be further “attracted” to liquidity concentration zones around $33 and even $37.7. But if trading volume and capital flow fail to cooperate, the upper zones could also become profit-taking pressure points, causing the price to fall again.

Therefore, the next movement of RIVER will heavily depend on the capital game around the $25 level. If liquidity is successfully absorbed and converted into support, the rebound space could reopen; otherwise, the strength may only be a temporary correction, and the price should remain cautious of retesting lower supports.
