Daily chart for LDO/USDT (Source: CoinMarketCap)

LDO’s price has flipped the $0.763 resistance level relatively comfortably over the past four days. This happened after the 9 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) line crossed above the 20 EMA line. The move has now encountered resistance at $1.183 to push the price down to its current level.

The resistance has seen the Relative Strength Index (RSI) on LDO’s daily chart slope negatively towards the RSI SMA line. This could be a bearish flag to watch out for over the coming days, which suggests that LDO’s price will fall in the coming days.

A confirmation that LDO’s price will fall is if it breaks below the 9 EMA line. An earlier indication would be the RSI closing the gap between itself and the RSI SMA line. Should the price of LDO drop down to the 9 EMA level and the 9 EMA level hold as support, it could be the retracement that LDO’s price needs before it breaks above the current resistance level.
