Investors also returned after DCR spent months trading inside a persistent downtrend. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result, the rally shifted market sentiment and placed the token among the strongest performers during the session.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even so, higher trading activity alone did not confirm that buyers had gained complete control.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead, the rapid expansion in volume suggested the market had entered a decisive phase where both buyers and sellers actively competed for direction.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Selling pressure lingered beneath the rally<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite the impressive price recovery, spot market positioning painted a more balanced picture.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 90-day Spot Taker Cumulative Volume Delta remained seller-dominant, indicating market sell orders continued to exceed aggressive buy orders throughout the broader period.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Such a reading highlighted that sellers still entered positions even as the price advanced sharply. However, buyers absorbed much of that supply instead of allowing the rally to reverse immediately.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Such behavior often reflected improving demand because sustained buying managed to offset continuous selling pressure.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even so, the indicator showed that bullish conviction had not become one-sided.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If aggressive selling continues to increase near higher price levels, DCR could face stronger resistance before extending its recovery.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_615784\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-615784\" style=\"width: 2560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
