Here is why Cosmos (ATOM) Price is rallying

The Cosmos native crypto (ATOM) has surged by more than 17% in the last 24 hours; a time when all the major cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and Bitcoin have nosedived although they are now turning green as they try to correct.

Cosmos is currently at $36.08 with a trading volume of $3.9 billion and is up. If it continues with the current bullish trend, it might set a new all-time high within the first quarter of 2022.

What is Cosmos (ATOM)?

Cosmos is simply a project that solves the problems facing the blockchain industry to make blockchain technology less difficult and complex for decentralized apps developers.

ATOM is the native token of the Cosmos blockchain network.

Why the ATOM price is rallying

The current ATOM rally is highly attributed to the recent announcement by the market cap on Twitter saying that it will share IBC integrated tokens on the Cosmos network. Currently, Terra has already dominated this market with 49.6%.

ATOM is expected to shoot to the moon after the Terra market domination. However, when ATOM hit an all-time of $44.8 on 20th September, it started a phase that ended at $20.18 in December and since then it has continued to rise.

With the failed January 7 and 17 breakout attempts, the bulls started an inverted head and shoulder breakout on January 1st and the altcoin hit a five-week high of 79.61% ROI from its 29th December low.

The bears maintained their 43.6% Fibonacci support as the bulls continued to defend the 23.6% support level which they later lost by 38.2% in the recent sell-off, during the sell-off ATOM lost 35.6% of its worth, although they recaptured 38.2% from the growing selling effect.

There was a bearish bias after RSI formed the downward channel due to the resistance near the midline which led the MACD’s histogram to discover a closing equilibrium that favored the sellers.

Is $1.5 the next low for Fantom (FTM/USD)?

  • FTM/USD is down 7.83% in the past 24 hours and 33% in the last seven days
  • The crypto token sits at the support of $2.0 in a bearish market
  • $1.50 is the next support level if FTM/USD breaks below the consolidation zone

Fantom’s token FTM/USD has been on a strong rally since December 21, when all other cryptocurrencies were experiencing major weaknesses. It rose from a low of around $1.35 on December 21 to a high of $3.37 on January 17.

However, the token faced bearish pressure and has been dropping since then. At the current trading of around $2.0, FTM/USD has dropped by more than 7% in the past 24 hours, extending losses in the week to at least 33%.

FTM/USD technical analysis – $2.0 is the established support

Source – TradingView

Looking at the daily chart above, FTM/USD has retreated to the support of $2.0. It attempted to rebound before retesting the support again in price weakness that has engulfed the entire cryptocurrency industry. The overall weakness has been connected to the upcoming policy tightening by Fed aiming to tame the rising inflation.

Although FTM/USD is rebounding from the support, it still faces bearish pressure, with the 9-day, 14-day, and 20-day providing resistance. A short-term resistance also exists at the $2.39 level and could constrain prices. We need to watch the close of the candlestick on the daily chart to confirm a trend reversal or continuation.

Summary

Based on the technical pointers, FTM/USD presents a buying opportunity if the $2.0 level holds. A price action signal such as the formation of a bullish pin bar at the support could signal a trend reversal and take FTM/USD higher.

Nonetheless, FTM/USD could break below the support if crypto weakness continues. A break below the current level would see the token claim the $1.5 zone, which is the next support.

LINK/USD technical analysis outlook

Across the hourly chart, the price action of Chainlink had broken below the $17.73 resistance after strong bearish market volatility pushed the price of the assets into a negative sell-off mode.

However, at the time of writing this analysis, the value of LINK/USD tends to trade along the July 23rd market initial support region. In essence, if the price should plunge below this level, the entire price movement of LINK/USD will meet near-term support at a $10.59 bearish price target.

After facing rejection along with $27.31 resistance, the value of LINK/USD tends to plummet aggressively against the US dollar as fundamental economic updates from the US region aim to hasten the action of sellers at driving the price of the asset to the South. However, the overall price action of Chainlink across all time frames remains negative.

Where could be a positive turning point for the asset

While awaiting the market to complete its bearish price movement, we should however be aware that if this negative price action should extend further, the value of LINK/USD may likely find a resting point at $10.59 If at all the volume of the sellers outweigh the buyers‘ momentum.
