Polkadot’s [DOT] ongoing recovery is headed into a bearish zone, which may impact traders if a price reversal occurs. A previous report entailed that DOT had a selling opportunity if bulls were discouraged in the same bearish zone.
This time, there are more hurdles to clear before reaching the high range. Meanwhile, Bitcoin [BTC] has reclaimed $27k, but it remains to be seen if it will retest the $28k level again.
DOT edging higher to multiple roadblocks
Above the rally lies a couple of FVG (fair value gap) zones. The first FVG zone ($5.47 – $5.61), white, was formed during the drop on 8 May.
The second FVG (red) was formed just above the mid-range level of $5.35, while the third one (blue) aligns with the mid-range. This could make the area above the mid-range a key bearish stronghold unless BTC reclaims $28k.
Otherwise, a price rejection could be imminent in the mid-range if BTC falters. Such a move could tip sellers to extend gains to the range low of $5.2.
Alternatively, DOT could push through the FVGs and hit the range high of $5.51 if BTC retests $28k. But it could falter again at this level as the range high aligns with another FVG zone (white) of $5.47 – $5.61, especially if BTC cannot go beyond $28k.
The RSI and OBV registered upticks, confirming the recent buying pressure and demand. However, RSI rested in a neutral position, and the price could take either direction.
