Key points from MATIC price analysis

  • The support trendline carries the ongoing recovery in MATIC price
  • The 50-and-100-day EMA on the verge of bullish crossover may attract more buyers to the market
  • The intraday trading volume in the MATIC is $748.3 Million, indicating a 24.5% gain

In late August, the MATIC prices took a bullish reversal from the $0.75 support level, resulting in a rising channel pattern, accounting for a 25% jump. As a result, the bull cycle beats the 50-and-100-day EMA but struggles to reach the psychological mark of $1.0. 

Taking the larger picture into account, the price action reveals a cup and handle pattern in the daily chart with a neckline at the psychological mark of $1.0. The ongoing bull cycle projects the possibility of pattern completion, which may shortly result in a bullish breakout if the buying pressure sustains.

However, amid today’s sell-off, the MATIC price tumbled 7.3% and shows a bearish engulfing candle in the rising channel.

Coming to the intraday trading volumes, the bearish engulfing candle finds seller commitment, teasing a rising channel fallout. If the prices manage to close below the support trendline, MATIC traders can find a short-term selling opportunity with a target of the $0.75 support level. Furthermore, if the increased selling pressure breaks the $0.75 level, a prolonged correction might test the psychological mark of $0.50.

However, an uptrend continuation reaching the psychological mark of $1.0 will increase the breakout possibility. And the unleashed bullish momentum upon successful breakout can test the overhead resistance of $1.30, accounting for a 30% jump.

Technical Indicators

DMI: due to the recent sell-off, the DI lines reverse sharply, indicating a bearish crossover possibility. And the falling adx line maintains the signal of weak Trend momentum. 

Relative Strength Index: A steady growth in daily-RSI slope dips to the halfway line cracking under the 14-day SMA. Hence the Technical indicators maintain a slightly bearish viewpoint for MATIC.

  • Support levels- 
  •  $0.815 and $0.75
