ATOM price trades inflection point
ATOM price dropped 61 from the highs of $44.54 made in mid-January, to tag the swing lows of $17.34.This fall is the result of the ‘double top’ formation at the mentioned level. After retracing 35% in September, the ATOM price took support near the 50-day EMA (Exponential Moving Average) at $21.87. ATOM clocked gains of 25% but the bulls lack the conviction to carry forward the gains and dropped further lower to $16.59.
Currently, the ATOM price once again hovering near the reliable support placed at around $17.0. In addition to that, we expect a bullish formation, namely ‘inverted hammer’ on the weekly chart with a condition of a next green candlestick above $20.0.
If that happens, the investors would next to keep eye on the horizontal resistance zone near $25.0.
On the contrary, a fall below the session’s low would wash out the bulls’ hope of any gains. A downside target could be located near the lows visible in early August around $14.0.
