Is Uniswap Price Coin Heading to $20?

An analysis of the daily chart showcased the Uniswap price has remained in a sideways trend for nearly 2 years, encapsulated between the $12.5 and $3.3 mark. Amid the broader market trend, the UNI coin entered a new recovery in late October 2023 when the price rebounded from $3.5 support.

In the past 4-months, the UNI price recovery surged 210% to reach the current trading price of $11.9. However, a significant portion of this recovery was obtained recently as altcoin value surged 60% within the last 48 hours.

The sudden surge is likely triggered by a new proposal of UF Governance Lead @eek637 aims to revamp the Uniswap Protocol’s governance by rewarding UNI token holders who stake and delegate their tokens. This initiative is designed to enhance community participation and governance efficacy within the Uniswap ecosystem.

By incentivizing token holder engagement, Uniswap is not only strengthening its governance model but also reinforcing its position as a leading decentralized exchange in the DeFi sector.

Rounding Bottom Pattern Signal Major Trend Reversal

A look at the weekly time frame chart shows the ongoing rally in UNI price is developing a rounding bottom pattern. This chart pattern is a major sign of a downtrend bottoming and a new start of a recovery trend in an asset. Amid the current rally, the coin buyers recently challenged the pattern’s neckline resistance at $12.5. A potential breakout from this barrier will intensify the recovery momentum and set the potential target of $21.

However, it’s reasonable to expect a minor pullback in UNI price following its aggressive surge.

• Exponential Moving Average: A sudden uptick in 20-and-50-day EMA reflects an aggressive recovery momentum.
• Average Directional Index: The ADX slope at 31% indicates the UNI price may need a minor pullback to revive from exhausted bullish momentum.
