The Polkadot price surged over 6% in the last 24 hours to trade at $7.53 at press time.

Polkadot Price Technical Overview

Closing prices have indicated a volatile pattern with the most recent figures shifting from $7.575 to $7.56 This suggests a consolidation phase after a brief spike. The 9 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) has been steadily increasing, moving from $7.198 to $7.406, which aligns with a generally bullish trend in the shorter term. Similarly, the 20 EMA, rising from $7.121 to $7.261, reinforces this bullish sentiment, suggesting a strengthening support level beneath the current price.

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicators provide additional depth to our analysis. Over the last few periods, the MACD line has consistently been above the signal line. Similarly, the histogram values have been positive and growing. This indicates increasing bullish momentum. However, the most recent histogram value shows a slight decrease, hinting at potential weakening in buying pressure.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI), remaining above the 70 threshold in recent periods, peaked at 76.20 and currently stands at 70.79. This suggests that the asset is potentially overbought, which might deter new buyers and could lead to a corrective pullback.

Levels to Watch

Looking ahead, resistance levels at $8.464 and $8.612 will be critical. Should the bullish momentum continue, and the price breach these resistances, it could pave the way for further upward movement. Conversely, support levels at $7.088 and $7.071 must hold to prevent a deeper retracement. A break below these could trigger bearish sentiment, potentially making these good exit points for long positions or entry points for short trades.

Given the current indicators and price levels, potential entry points for long positions could be around the $7.4 area if the price demonstrates rebound signs from this level with supportive volume and MACD readings. For short trades, a cautious approach would be to consider positions if the price fails to hold above the mentioned support levels, particularly if accompanied by a bearish MACD crossover and increasing sell volumes.
