Does NEAR have a seasonal pattern

Why the number of observations beats the average percentage
We print the number of observations next to the percentage for a reason. 6 observations is 6 observations: on a sample that size a pattern cannot be told apart from coincidence. Interesting to look at, not something to plan around.
How to use this
What these numbers do not say
Everything above is the past. It does not say where the price goes next, but it does show the range to be ready for: $0.5246 to $20.60, with a drawdown of −92.3%.
Where to check the NEAR price across exchanges
What is useful right now comes down to three things, all of them computed from live data rather than history.
The NEAR price gap between exchanges
NEAR costs different amounts on different exchanges, and that gap is visible in the cross-exchange scanner: it shows where the coin is cheaper and where it is dearer right now.
How much NEAR you can actually buy at that price
Before a large purchase it is worth checking the order books — they show how much you can actually take at a given price, not just the best offer.
Moving NEAR between platforms
And if the coin has to move between venues, the transfers section shows which network is cheaper.
