Polkadot (DOT) Price AnalysisÂ
With the rest of the market, the price outlook on Polkadot over the last day is bearish overall.
After hitting the $6.15 support in late October, the cryptocurrency rose to the upside along with the rest of the market, eventually hitting the $7.2 resistance last week. The cryptocurrency started to range at this price level as the bulls and bears started to push against one another
Following the massive price dips and the liquidations that have swept through the market over the last 48 hours, the price of DOT reversed from this level and started to trend downwards.
Over the last 24 hours, Polkadot has canceled almost all its gains over the last few weeks. The cryptocurrency is down by 7% over the last day and is also down by almost 4% over the last seven.
As illustrated above, the price decline over the last 24 hours has brought the cryptocurrency below its 50, 100, and 200-period moving averages (red, green, and purple) in the 4-hour timeframe.
As illustrated above, DOT shows some interesting signs from a wider perspective.
DOT Price Outlook
Despite the price dip over the last day, the RSI on the daily chart has only just managed to break below the neutral line and is now gravitating toward the “slightly oversold” zone. A bearish crossover has also formed between the RSI-based Moving average and its signal line, indicating that the bears have managed to seize control from the bulls.
The MACD shows weakness on the part of Polkadot’s bulls, and a bearish crossover also appears to be on the verge of forming. This indicates that the price of the cryptocurrency may trade even lower and test the resistance around the $6.15 zone
Overall, the bulls are expected to defend the $6.15 – $5.8 resistance against the bears with all they’ve got. Holding this resistance is important, considering how it has remained unbroken for almost two years now since DOT broke it to the upside in December 2020.
