On the positive side, the coin is about to form a golden cross pattern as the 50-day weighted moving average crosses the 200-day average. This pattern often leads to a strong bullish breakout.

Such a move will see it rise to the psychological point at $200, which is slightly above the 50% retracement level. Read more: Why crypto prices rose while the Dow Jones, US dollar index fell
