Read Polkadot’s [DOT] Price Prediction 2023-24
An earlier price analysis by AMBCrypto projected that bulls could go on a sustained bull run if they were able to clear the $4 psychological level. However, the price rejection at the psychological price zone could extend DOT’s heavily bearish price action.
Sellers maintained dominance over DOT’s price action
The overwhelming control of sellers on DOT’s price action has been evident since mid-July. With multiple support levels succumbing to the selling pressure, DOT buyers have registered massive losses in the spot market.
After DOT sunk to a new low of $3.6, buyers rallied between 13 October to 16 October. Yet, sellers quickly extinguished the bullish fire with a 7% price dump over the past three days.
Furthermore, the RSI (Relative Strength Index) highlighted the strong selling pressure, dropping into the oversold zone with a reading of 29. Similarly, the OBV (On Balance Volume) registered another downtick to hint at waning interest in a price reversal.
As such, DOT could still sink below the $3.6 support level, with more shorting gains possible for sellers at $3.
