Polkadot Technical Analysis
The price has been bearish since 18 May and all the way till 1 August it was still in a bearish trend as it never broke any structure to the upside. now after that, a shift in market structure has been observed, shifting the market from a bearish to a bullish trend. the market has been bullish but correctively. any sort of momentous wave has not been observed till now.
Now recently on Sep 1, a candle formed which engulfed the previous structure, giving a HINT for buyers to be in control. currently, it is been retracing to fill the imbalance between buyers and sellers.
Now seeing the price action, the current price may retrace at least 50% of the engulfing candle, and afterwards it might shoot up unless the Btc shoots down as it has a confluence over alts. Other than that, the price really doesn’t has any reason to go down. Levels are shown in the chart and we can expect a similar movement.
