Amid the geopolitical issue between Russia and Ukraine, the Terra coin gathered remarkable gains as February ended. The altcoin doubled from the $48 support in less than three weeks, resting the All-Time High resistance of $100.

However, the higher price rejection candle on march 9th and 10th suggested the sellers continue to defend this level with vigor. The follow-up reversal breached the immediate support of $93, displaying an evening star candle pattern.

Today, the retest phase shows a long-wick rejection candle indicating the intense supply pressure at the higher levels.

The renewed selling could plunge the altcoin by 12%, bringing it to $78.5. However, a confluence of other technical support, i.e., 20 DMA and 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level, suggests the buyers would mount a strong defense at this mark.

On a contrary note, if buyers pushed the coin price above the $93 mark. The resulting fakeout will encourage buyers to rechallenge the $100 resistance.

  • Resistance levels: $93 and $100
  • Support levels: $78.5 and $63

Technical indicator

A bearish divergence in the daily-Relative Strength Index (73) bolsters a pullback to the following support($78.5) 

However, the recovery rally reclaimed a bullish sequence among the DMAs(20, 50, 100, and 200). These DMA lines could assist buyers in continuing the bullish rally.
