Polkadot RSI right now

Polkadot RSI is 47.2 on the 4-hour chart: neutral, right in the middle. 66 of the 113 tracked coins have a lower RSI, which puts DOT 67th on the RSI ranking. That is above the market median of 45, so DOT has held up better than most coins over the last few days. DOT RSI would have to fall 17 points to turn oversold, or rise 23 points to turn overbought.

Polkadot RCI and short-term trend

Polkadot RCI(9) is −33.3 (weak down): recent closes have been falling more often than rising, without the one-way selling of a strong downtrend.

Polkadot price action this week

DOT is −0.8% over the last hour, +0.4% over 24 hours, −9.7% over 7 days and −3.1% over 30 days. Its 7-day closing range runs from $1.06 to $1.25, and at $1.12 it sits 32% of the way up that range.

Polkadot vs Bitcoin

Over 7 days DOT has underperformed Bitcoin by 8.2 percentage points (−9.7% against −1.6% for BTC), and over 30 days it has underperformed by 4.5 points (−3.1% against +1.4%). A typical DOT day moves ±5.4% against ±1.8% for Bitcoin, so DOT is about 2.9× as volatile and usually exaggerates Bitcoin's moves.

Polkadot all-time high and recovery

The Polkadot all-time high is $54.98, reached on 4 Nov 2021, 1,810 days ago. To get back to that record, DOT would need to rise 4826% from here. 107 of 113 tracked coins are closer to their own ATH, which ranks DOT 108th on the ATH ranking.

Polkadot in the four-year cycle

Polkadot set its all-time high on 4 Nov 2021, in the cycle that peaked in 2021, and has not beaten it in the current cycle that began with the Bitcoin halving of 20 Apr 2024. That record is now 5.0 years old. Only 55 of 113 tracked coins have set a new all-time high since that halving.

Polkadot volatility and trading volume

A typical day moves DOT about ±5.4%, wilder than the median coin's ±4.7%, so a one-day swing beyond ±10.7% would be unusual for it. Polkadot traded $139.2M in the last 24 hours, 7.3% of its $1.91B market cap.
