DYDX Bulls Eye A Move To $5.13
DYDX recorded a high of $3.433 on February 1 before starting to decline toward the end of the day. It plunged almost 22% from the day’s high on that day. The token’s price then spent the next week traveling south before bouncing off the support at $2.3 to a high of $2.99 on February 15.
Overhead pressure at the $3.284 psychological level zone saw the price turndown to consolidate around the $2.63 buyer congestion zone. This prevented the price from dropping lower in Saturday’s session.
DYDX’s price action since the start of February has formed a bullish flag chart pattern, as shown on the daily chart (below). Such technical formation is considered highly bullish and indicates that the asset’s uptrend could continue soon.
Accordingly, the DYDX price faced immediate resistance due to the upper boundary of the flag at $2.912. A daily candlestick close above this level would authenticate the continuation of the uptrend. If this pans out, the first line of resistance will sprout from the equal highs at $3.284.
If bulls manage to push the price past this level, it would set the road for them to reach the technical target of the governing chart pattern at $5.129. Such a move would represent an 80.32% rise from the current price.
DYDX/USD Daily Chart
Besides the promising technical formation, the relative strength index (RSI) was within the positive territory. This added credence to DYDX’s bullish thesis. The price strength at 54 hinted that there were more buyers than sellers. This could push the token’s price higher.
Furthermore, the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) indicator was also in the positive zone above the zero line. This favors the upside. The 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) was also moving upward to show more buyers venturing into the space. Its position at $2.362 and that of the 100-day and 200-day SMAs at $2.008 and $1.837, respectively, provided additional support.
On the downside, the RSI was flattening out, suggesting that buyer activity was easing down. It also hints at increasing overhead pressure from the flag’s upper boundary. The ongoing correction could continue in the short term.
If the DYDX price drops under the immediate support at $2.579, it could slip past the SMAs and fall below the lower boundary of the flag at $1.592. Such a move could provoke massive sell orders that would send DYDX price toward the $1.31 demand level.
If the price also loses this support, the price could take a free fall to the $1.093 support floor. Traders and investors could expect the DYDX price to take a breather here before attempting a recovery.
DYDX Alternative To Buy
Investors looking to buy DYDX around the same levels should wait for the token’s price to break above the flag’s upper boundary. You can also play it safer by allowing it to move above the equal highs at $3.284. From here, investors would be on course to get up to 80.32% gains if the DYDX price completes the bullish pattern.
Alternatively, investors could consider CCHG, a new crypto project still in the presale stage. This would be an excellent way to diversify their portfolios.
