Since last weekend, the Hyperliquid price has surged from $29.7 to $36.4, posting a gain of 22.6%.

The portfolio margin system of the platform, which was only available in a restricted pre-alpha mode for experimental purposes, will be taken to an alpha stage after the next network update.

Hyperliquid (HYPE) Price Heading For Major Resistance Breakout
Over the past three months, the Hyperliquid Hype price showcased a consolidation trend below the $36.7 mark. The coin price displayed a large price swing between two ascending trendlines in the daily chart, reflecting the broader market uncertainty.
With today’s price jump, the coin buyers attempt a bullish breakout from the immediate resistance of $36.7. A successful flip of this barrier will bolster HYPE for another 7% before challenging the wedge pattern resistance.
The potential retest to the overhead trendline would act as a key pivot moment for HYPE traders. A bullish breakout from this range will accelerate the buying pressure for a sustained recovery.
However, if the price action at this resistance suggest intact supply pressure, the Hyperliquid Hype could reverse lower and prolonged its consolidation.
