Technical Indicators

MATIC will need to avoid the $0.9084 pivot to target the First Major Resistance Level (R1) at $0.9240 and the Sunday high of $0.9253.

A broad-based crypto rally would support a return to $0.92.

In the event of another extended rally, the bulls could target the Second Major Resistance Level (R2) at $0.9409 and the Saturday high of $0.9411.

The Third Major Resistance Level sits at $0.9743.

A fall through the pivot would bring the First Major Support Level (S1) at $0.8915 into play. Barring an extended sell-off, MATIC should steer clear of sub-$0.89 and the Second Major Support Level (S2) at $0.8759.

The Third Major Support Level sits at $0.8434.

Looking at the EMAs and the 4-hourly candlestick chart (below), it was a bullish signal. This morning, MATIC sat above the 50-day EMA, currently at $0.9054.

The 50-day EMA pulled away from the 200-day EMA, with the 100-day EMA widening from the 200-day EMA, both bullish MATIC price signals.

A hold above the 50-day EMA would support a return to $0.92 to target the Major Resistance Levels. However, a fall through the 50-day EMA would leave S1 in play. However, MATIC should avoid the 100-day EMA, currently at $0.8780, and S2 ($0.8759).
