Curve DAO slides after $0.266 rejection – Here’s why CRV sellers still lead

On the 13th of June, Curve DAO ‘s $CRV token experienced a minor dip of 2.35% in the past 24 hours, with an Open Interest decline of 1.83%. This lack of volatility on a weekend, by itself, is par for the crypto course.

A 64% decline in daily trading volume after the altcoin faced rejection from a key resistance zone was also not out of the norm, but it was more interesting for traders looking for a directional play.

Here’s why $CRV is primed for its next impulse move.

$CRV’s bearish trend is upheld following the rejection from just below $0.266

In an earlier report, AMBCrypto had laid out the bearish case for Curve DAO’s native token. The higher timeframe bearish structure break and subsequent rally toward $0.266 was seen as a bearish development.

The report concluded that traders would want to sell the bounce. On Friday, the 12th of June, $CRV bounced to a local high of $0.2655, and has slide 9.87% since then.

The 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level at $0.266 was highlighted as a key resistance, and so far, the bears have defended it.

The CMF has sunk to +0.03, signaling that capital inflows have slowed down. The RSI and MFI also sank toward 50 to indicate momentum has slowed, but did not show that bears have the advantage.

Traders’ call to action- Sell

The higher timeframe structure was bearish, and the 4-hour chart underlined a rejection from a key Fibonacci retracement level. Traders can look to go short, with a stop-loss above the $0.293 swing high.

There is a chance that $CRV would bounce toward $0.27, based on the Liquidation Map. There was a relatively high amount of short liquidation leverage overhead that could be hunted before the higher timeframe downtrend continues.

Another piece of evidence pointing toward a bearish $CRV outlook was the rising exchange inflows. The 7-day moving average climbed back into positive territory, to the highest values seen in 2026.

The high inflows and bearish price action indicated swing traders can sell, but should be wary of a squeeze toward $0.26-$0.27.

Final Summary

• The Curve DAO native token has a higher timeframe bias and the $0.266 level was a key resistance.
• $CRV has met with rejection at this resistance and looks set to continue its downtrend.
