Tezos rebounded at the support provided by the $1.29 level but it failed to break above $1.35. As such, it slipped below. It now trades directly at support provided by the 100-days EMA which is further bolstered by a 2-month-old rising trend line.

If XTZ continues to drop beneath the 100-days EMA and the rising trend line, the market will certainly turn bearish. To turn bullish, it must rise and create a fresh high above the $1.50 level.

Tezos Short Term Price Prediction

If the sellers continue to push the market beneath the 100-days EMA, immediate support is located at $1.20 which is provided by the 200-days EMA. Beneath this, support can be found at $1.15 (.618 Fib Retracement), $1.10, and $1.00. Alternatively, if the bulls defend the 100-days EMA and climb higher, resistance is expected at $1.35 and $1.42. Above this, resistance is found at $1.50.

The RSI remains beneath the 50 level which shows that the bears control the market momentum. However, the Stochastic RSI has been extremely oversold for a long time now and is primed for a bullish crossover signal that could send this market much higher.
