At the time of writing, CRO price was trading at $0.08, after the price lost almost 2.5% in the last 24 hours. The token was recording a 24-hour trading volume of $39.7 million and a live market cap of $2.003 billion, placing the token at #32 on the list of cryptocurrencies by market cap size.

Cronos Price Bulls Target A Return To $0.118
Since November, the Cronos (CRO) price has suffered extreme volatility, recording low trade volumes as bulls and bears battled for control. The token dipped 38% to the $0.053 support floor. The price consolidated above this level for the remaining part of the year until January 1, when bulls finally took over, raising the Cronos price to the $0.09 range high on January 16.
Cronos then recorded massive sell-offs for the next two days, sending the price down to $0.071, but bulls regained control of the market and are now trying to raise the CRO price higher.
This price action has formed a cup and handle chart pattern on the daily chart (below). At the time of writing, CRO was trading at $0.0801, sitting on the support offered by the 100-day simple moving average (SMA) at the $0.08 psychological level as bulls target higher prices.
Increased buying pressure from this buyer congestion zone could set the Cronos price on a path to a 38% climb above the neckline of the technical formation to the $0.118 level. This would mark a 48% increase from current levels.
The upward movement of the relative strength index (RSI), which was also tipping upwards, showed that buyers were leading the market. The value of this oscillating indicator at 63 suggested that the buyers were in control of the CRO price, adding credence to the bullish thesis.
CRO/USD Daily Chart
To confirm the bullish trend, however, CRO price has to rise above the handle high at $0.084 and make a move to the pattern’s neckline. A daily candlestick close above this level would confirm a bullish recovery.
On the downside, a daily candlestick close below the 100-day SMA would see CRO price drop first to the low of the handle at $0.0711 and later further down to retest the 50-day SMA sitting at the $0.06 psychological level. In highly extreme cases, the price could dip further to the $0.053 swing low, which is the cup’s bottom.
Market participants could expect CRO bulls to take a breather here giving bulls an opportunity to regroup before making another recovery attempt.
