Optimism price faces resistance amid increased short-term trading

In the wake of a bearish phase that began in August, the cryptocurrency optimism price (OP) is currently grappling with resistance at the $1.36 mark. As of Wednesday, OP was priced at $1.28, according to market data.

Large-scale investors, often referred to as whales, have been accumulating significant holdings of OP during this downtrend. These investors anticipate substantial profits if the price can successfully breach the $1.36 level.

However, an increase in short-term traders, those who hold assets for less than a month, has heightened OP's susceptibility to sudden sell-offs and volatility. This trend could potentially disrupt the plans of large-scale investors waiting for a price breakthrough.

A successful flip of $1.3 into a support level could indicate the end of the bearish trend for OP. This would be a positive development for those large-scale investors who have been accumulating positions during the downtrend.

On the other hand, if OP fails to establish its support level, it could trigger significant investor losses. The situation underlines the inherent risks and uncertainties in cryptocurrency trading, especially in volatile assets like OP.
