On March 1st, the Fantom (FTM) price gave a bullish breakout from the $1.8 resistance. The relief rally made a high of $2.08, but the buyers couldn’t sustain at this higher level and reverted from the descending trendline.
This reversal triggered a fakeout from the $1.8 level, trapping the aggressive buyers on March 4th. The bear trap accelerated the selling pressure and slumped the coin back to $1.3 support. As the altcoin retests its monthly support level ($1.3), all gains made by traders during last week’s recovery are nullified.
The FTM price trading above the 200 SMA line indicates an overall bearish trend. Moreover, a bearish crossover of the 50 and 100 DMA could attract more sellers in the market.
