Technical Analysis: Cosmos Climbs Higher, While Solana’s Fall Continues

After trading lower for the majority of Monday’s session, cryptocurrency prices were slowly starting to find support, with a few markets rallying, as we headed toward the end of the day.

Cosmos

One such crypto was cosmos (ATOM), which was the biggest gainer in the top 20, climbing by almost 10% to start the week. ATOM/USD climbed to an intraday high of $36.23, which is around $10 from its all-time high (ATH), which it hit on January 7th.

Monday’s move came as prices rebounded from the recent support level of $31.00, after briefly falling to a secondary support point of $27.05 over the weekend. That move, which now appears to have been a false breakout, has led to bulls pushing prices higher.

Looking at the chart below will also show that a downwards cross of the 10-EMA (red) and 25-EMA (blue) has taken place, which typically signals bearish momentum, however with the support level being held, could this mean prices could be heading higher?

According to the RSI indicator, ATOM/USD is currently tracking at 50, which means it is neither oversold, nor overbought, meaning that price momentum could shift either way.

Solana

Despite Monday’s selloff slowing as the day approached a close, prices of solana (SOL) remained lower.

SOL/USD which is currently #8 in the crypto top 10, was trading over 11% lower (as of writing), hitting an intraday low of $81.23 in the process.

The chart below shows that Solana has formed a descending triangle, after a streak of lower lows, with today’s fall sending prices to their lowest level since August 27th.

Prices briefly broke out of the price floor of $85.15 earlier in today’s session, however have since rebounded above this level.

Currently, the RSI is tracking at 23, which is in oversold territory, could this be setting the way for bulls to re-enter on Tuesday?

What do you think about cosmos and solana’s price action? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Trustee Updates Mt Gox Creditors — Repayment Date and Exchange Still Unknown Last week speculation and rumors concerning the release of 140K bitcoin ( BTC ) from Mt Gox littered social media platforms and headlines.

Fidelity Discusses Bitcoin as Portfolio Insurance — Could Soon Stand in ‘Stark Contrast’ to Path Fiat Currencies Take

Fidelity Digital Assets, a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments, says that bitcoin could be considered portfolio insurance. The firm notes that the cryptocurrency “may soon stand in stark contrast to the path that the rest of the world and fiat currencies may take — namely the path of increased supply, additional currency creation, and central bank balance sheet expansion.” Fidelity Says Bitcoin Could Be Portfolio Insurance Fidelity Digital Assets, a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments, recently published a research study titled “The Rising Dollar and Bitcoin.” The research outlines “how bitcoin could be considered portfolio insurance” as the rising dollar impacts global currency markets. “The strengthening U.S. dollar is wreaking havoc among other countries and may put pressure on the Federal Reserve to soon reverse its tightening monetary actions, something that has precedent based on 1985’s Plaza Accord,” Fidelity explained. In addition, “more monetary debasement may be needed to ...

Economists Discuss Russia, China Potentially Developing Gold-Backed Currency That Could Undermine US Dollar

Economists have weighed in on reports that China and Russia may be developing a new gold-backed currency that could undermine the U.S. dollar’s status as the world’s primary reserve currency. Russia and China May Be Developing Gold-Backed Currency Several experts have shared their views on Russia and China potentially creating a new gold-baked currency, Fox Business reported Saturday, emphasizing that China has been buying up huge quantities of gold while Russia was forced off the U.S. dollar due to sanctions imposed on the country following its invasion of Ukraine. The news outlet noted that some experts have cautioned that these moves, along with the closer relationship that has developed between Moscow and Beijing, point to the likelihood of China attempting to launch a gold-backed currency. However, neither Russia nor China has officially confirmed plans for such a currency. Craig Singleton, senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and a former U.S. diplomat,...
