MATIC awaits for the upside continuation
On the daily chart, polygon (MATIC) has depreciated 55% while moving inside the downside channel. Investors after hitting the lows in January records an ascent of 60%. After a brief dip below the crucial 200-EMA (Exponential Moving Average), the resurgence of buying pressure pierced above the mentioned moving average once again. The above-average volumes have been supportive of the bullish sentiment.
However, a strong conviction is required to carry on the current price action. If the buying pressure is able to produce a green candlestick on the daily chart then it would strengthen the possibility of bulls testing the psychological $2.0 level.
