The descending triangle pattern formed by support and resistance trend lines on the daily chart displays underlying bearishness in the market. The SNX prices pulled back at $1.65, narrowly escaping falling below the crucial support level of $1.60. Due to increasing selling pressure the SNX significantly fell below the 200-day EMA, reflecting a persistent downward trend. The token sharply fell below the 23.60% Fibonacci retracement level from 78.60%, also supporting the declining trend in the market. The sideline traders have to wait to get an entry opportunity if price action signals a bullish breakout, which may take the price above $1.75. On the other hand, if SNX fails to reverse, it may fall below the mark of $1.50, triggering a selling spree.
RSI slope sharply fell below the halfway line making a bearish divergence under the 14-day SMA representing bullish sentiment due to increased selling pressure. Moreover, the fast and slow lines give a bearish cross as bearish bars again emerge on the histogram.
