SUI is currently testing a crucial supply zone following a massive 95% surge driven by the Federal Reserve’s recent interest rate cut announcement. The explosive rally, driven by significant buying pressure, has led to volatile price action, raising questions about whether this upward momentum can be sustained.
As SUI hovers near its current highs, market speculation around the possibility of a correction to lower demand levels is increasing, with $1.40 being the main target.

Key data from Coinglass shows a decline in market demand, indicating a possible slowdown in buying activity. This has made some investors tense as they expect a price drop in the coming days. The sudden surge has fueled both optimism and caution as traders weigh the potential for continued gains against the risk of a sharp reversal.
With SUI at a critical juncture, the coming days will be critical in determining whether the bullish trend can continue or whether the market will return to more stable demand levels. Investors are watching closely, ready to adjust their strategies based on the unfolding price action.
SUI financing rate signals price drop
SUI is at a critical point after days of extreme price action and significant gains. After the impressive 95% rally since the Federal Reserve’s rate cut announcement, some investors and traders are starting to take profits, signaling a possible shift in market sentiment. Many now view a correction to $1.40 as inevitable, especially as buying pressure subsides.
Key data from Coinglass indicates declining demand, with the financing rate turning negative to -0.067, which is an annual low. The funding rate is an important indicator in futures trading and represents the periodic payment between traders in long positions (bets on price increases) and traders in short positions (bets on price decreases).
When an asset’s funding rate becomes negative, it indicates that more traders are opening short positions, expecting the price to fall. This shift reflects increasing caution in the market as traders begin to position themselves for a possible downturn.

With funding levels so low and demand declining, the market is showing signs of cooling after SUI’s explosive rally in September. As a result, investors and traders are now patiently waiting for a correction from lower demand levels around $1.40, which could provide new buying opportunities or signal further declines, depending on broader market conditions.
Important levels to watch
SUI is currently trading at $1.73 after days of volatile price action. The price rose but stopped at the crucial resistance level of $2 and has since entered a consolidation phase just below. This key level has become a barrier for bulls, and a boost above $2 is needed for SUI to regain momentum and confirm a bullish trend.
However, the market remains uncertain and if the price fails to hold the $1.60 support level, a deeper correction could follow. Analysts predict that a break below $1.60 could lead to a 20% drop, pushing the SUI back to the $1.40 demand zone. This level is being closely watched by investors and traders as a crucial support to prevent further downward pressure.
