Monero Price Analysis

Just when we precisely look at the intraday price movement of Monero against the US Dollar, we see that the currency has been forming gradual and consecutive higher lows with almost a price accumulating trade. It was just in the initial hours yesterday when XMR price was seen drawing an uptrend just to close the day around $60.5 and breach the brief uptrend around $62.4. However, just at the time of writing, the MACD of the intraday trade for Monero appears bullish due to a subtle uptrend after the coin rose above $59.

On the weekly chart, XMR appears diminishing the gains of the last day as it continues to trade around $60, just where it closed yesterday. The 20-day Bollinger Bands are likely to squeeze, and as Monero lacks rapid traction, the coin is likely to breach below the lower band and lose the 50-day MA support. The price trend of Monero is still above 38.20% Fib yet appears bearish.

The MACD of the XMR coin draws a bearish crossover due to lack of steady intraday momentum and price accumulation, while the RSI shows the immediate reflex as the coin rose from $59, the RSI is seen at 53.91. Based on the technicals as well as Monero future price, the coin might face price correction up to its next support around $58 in the upcoming hours.
