Recently when we covered an article on Fantom coin, the recovery rally in the FTM/USD technical chart revealed a cup and handle pattern. For the past few days, the price was at the doorstep of a $3.17 neckline, struggling to surpass this resistance.

However, on January 16th, the price finally managed to break out from this overhead resistance, and for the first time, provided a daily candle closing above the $3.17 mark.

The FTM bulls have reclaimed the crucial EMA levels(20, 50, 100, and 200), indicating a bullish alignment in its daily chart. The crypto traders can use these EMA lines as support during bearish pullbacks.

The daily Relative Strength Index (62) moving above the neutral line and 20-SMA indicates a bullish sentiment. However, the FTM price chart also displays a bearish divergence, creating some doubt for this bull run.
