Finding support at $0.044 levels, NEM’s XEM recovered to $0.045 levels and a particularly range-bound 2nd half of the day.

For the week, NEM’s XEM gained 8.11%, with Saturday’s rally driving NEM’s XEM into the green.

The extended bearish trend, formed at late April’s swing hi $0.46547, remained firmly intact in spite of a 5th consecutive week in the green. NEM’s XEM continued to fall well short of the 23.6 FIB Retracement Level of $0.1359 following 6th February’s new swing lo $0.03405.

For the day ahead

A hold onto $0.046 levels through the morning would support another run at the first major resistance level at $0.0476. NEM’s XEM would need support from the broader market, however, for a breakout from $0.047 levels. Barring a crypto-rally, we would expect the first major resistance levels and Sunday’s high $0.0472 to leave NEM’s XEM short of $0.050 levels on the day.

Failure to hold onto $0.046 levels could see NEM’s XEM give up the early morning gains. A fall through the morning low $0.04597 would bring the first major support level at $0.0444 into play. Sentiment across the broader market would need to materially deteriorate for NEM’s XEM to visit sub-$0.044 levels.

We would expect the second major support level at $0.0426 to be left untested in the event of a reversal.
