Uniswap, a decentralized exchange (DEX) ecosystem, could become one of the best-performing crypto assets this week, following an inverse head-and-shoulders (H&S) pattern breakout.
Up 15% over the last week, UNI is trading slightly above $6 with $219 million in trading volume rushing in. Uniswap is the world’s 19th largest cryptocurrency boasting $4.6 billion in market capitalization.
Will the Inverse Head-And-Shoulders Pattern Propel Uniswap to $7.5?
Uniswap has since mid-June sustained an impressive uptrend from monthly lows of $3.6 to July highs of $6.148. The trend reversal completed the formation of an inverse head-and-shoulders when bulls confirmed support at $4.8, calling for more exposure to UNI longs ahead of an expected breakout above the pattern’s neckline resistance at $5.73.
An inverse H&S pattern is a bullish signal that shows the Uniswap market is about to switch from a downtrend to an uptrend. The pattern appears on the chart like a person’s head and shoulders flipped upside down.
The head represents the lowest point and the shoulders are higher. The neckline is the resistance level that connects the tops of the shoulders.
Since Uniswap price has already validated the H&S pattern by breaking above the neckline, it confirms the pattern, and traders expect a rally.
Traders are expected to buy UNI at the breakout point, $5.73 in this case, and aim for a target price that is equal to the distance from the head to the neckline added to the breakout point, which as observed on the chart may propel Uniswap price 30% to $7.50.
For starters, Uniswap would be in the best position to rally to $7.50 if bulls uphold support above $6. Extremely conservative traders may want to wait until UNI has confirmed the validity of this buyer congestion zone before triggering their buy orders.
In case of a reverse, it would be prudent to wait until Uniswap price bounces off the neckline resistance at $5.73, reinforced by the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) (in purple) at $5.665.
For now, the path with the least resistance is imperative to the upside, with more traders willing to bet on another buy signal from the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator. Usually, a bullish cross is characterized by the MACD line in blue flipping above the signal line.
The Money Flow Index (MFI) similarly adds credence to the bullish outlook indicating that the inflow of funds into UNI markets significantly surpasses the outflow volume. In other words, enhanced investor interest in the token powering one of crypto’s biggest DEX backs the anticipated 30% H&S breakout.
