The Sandbox (SAND) Price Skyrockets 20% After This, What's Next?

The Sandbox(SAND) price gradually narrowed within the descending trendline and $2.5 crucial support. As the coin price reached the apex, the sellers took a significant lead and breached the support neckline($2.5). The expected retest phase should validate the triangle breakdown, offering a 24% fall towards the $2 physiological mark.

Key points: 

  • The SAND buyers lost the crucial $2.5 support
  • The 20-day EMA offers dynamic resistance to SAND price
  • The 100-and-200-day EMA nearing a bearish crossover
  • The intraday trading volume in SAND price is $409.6 Million, indicating a 10% loss.

SAND/USDT ChartSource- Tradingview

The SAND/USDT technical chart showed a descending triangle pattern in the daily time frame chart. The coin price formed new lower highs within this pattern, reflecting the losing bullish momentum.

Furthermore, the buyers have defended the $2.5 support since last quarter, indicating a strong accumulation zone for traders. However, with the recent sell-off in the crypto market, the SAND price is down by 5% today and breached the bottom support($2.5).

Therefore, a daily-candle closing below this level would project a breakdown opportunity with the post-retest rally to drop 25% lower to $2 psychological support.

However, even if the SAND sellers couldn’t sustain below the $2.5 mark, the buyers need to breach the dynamic resistance trendline to confirm a bullish recovery.

Technical indicator

The Bollinger band indicator accentuated the narrowing range within the triangle pattern. Furthermore, the SAND price breached shared support of $2.5, and the indicator’s lower band provided an extra edge for short-sellers. 

The SAND price trading below the downsloping crucial EMAs(20, 50, 100, and 200) projects the sellers have the upper hand.

Moreover, the vortex indicator escapes from a bullish crossover between the VI+ and VI- line and undermines the buyer’s attempt to regain trend control. The increasing gap between these lines suggests strong selling in the market. 

  • Resistance levels- $2.5,and $3
  • Support levels- $2 and $1.5
