BNB Price

For over two months, the Binance coin price witnessed a slightly inclined trend as it resonated between the two trendlines of an inverted flag pattern. Amid the July-August correction in the crypto market, the sellers breached the pattern’s support trendline on August 15th. This breakdown signaled the continuation of the prevailing downtrend and plunged to a price below $220 support. Should you sell on this?

BNB PriceSource- Tradingview

The cryptocurrency market experienced a notable bloodbath on August 17th, as the leading digital currency, Bitcoin, faced aggressive selling. This was likely instigated by SpaceX’s decision to divest its holdings in Bitcoin, creating a ripple effect of increased selling pressure throughout the crypto space. Consequently, Binance coin, the fourth largest cryptocurrency, saw a substantial outflow of funds and recorded a 5.99% intraday loss. 

This drop has a high momentum breakdown below $220 support indicating the sellers obtained another resistance to pressurize buyers. By the press time, the BNB price trades at $218, with an intraday loss of 0.05%.

If the coin price shows sustainability below $220, the price will likely tumble another 8% to hit the $200 psychological level.

Can Binance Coin Make a Recovery Back to 230?

In the daily time frame chart, the BNB price shows two candles with lower price rejection near the $212 level. This demand pressure from below could trigger a minor pullback to test the breached support of $220. This retest will check price sustainability for interested short-sellers and offer new entry opportunities for them. However, in case the coin price breaks above $220, the anticipated pullback could reach $230.
