Filecoin’s native token (FIL) fell sharply over the past 24 hours, dropping from $2.39 to $2.23, a decline of nearly 7%, according to CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis model. The move reflected heightened volatility, with a $0.19 intraday range representing roughly 7.9% price swings.

Sellers dominated at the $2.41 resistance level, triggering a surge in trading volume to 5.92 million FIL — well above the 3.42 million daily average. Bulls defended the $2.23 support floor, with volume spiking above 4.8 million tokens, signaling potential exhaustion among sellers and the formation of a near-term base.

CoinDesk’s model highlighted classic capitulation patterns, where intense selling is followed by immediate relief, suggesting the market may be stabilizing above the critical $2.23 level.

In recent trading, FIL was down around 5.1% at $2.26. The broader cryptocurrency market also declined, with the CoinDesk 20 Index falling 3.6%.
