The XMR price shows a 1.19% drop in the daily candle, following the higher price rejection of the previous candle. Hence the likelihood of a bearish breakout below the support trendline increases.
Despite the higher price rejections from the 200 days average line, the Monero market prices sustained above the 100-day SMA. Hence the bullish influence over the 50 and 100 days SMA increases, easing a potential bullish crossover.
The daily RSI slope maintains a diagonally negative trend in the nearly overboard zone displaying a bearish divergence. Moreover, the MACD indicator shows a negative trend in the fast and slow lines, slowly picking up the bearish spread. Hence the technical indicators maintain an overall bearish outlook.
In brief, the XMR Technical Analysis suggests a high likelihood of a bearish fallout rather than the 200-day SMA breakout.
The increasing selling pressure may push the XMR prices below the support trendline resulting in the $155 retest. Moreover, the breakout rally can breach the $150 mark to test the $137 support level.
On the contrary, the bullish reversal will hit the $177 mark.
Resistance Levels: $177 and $200
Support Levels: $155 and $137
