BNB Price Movement Analysis
BNB, the native token of the Binance Smart Chain, faced a decline on Friday, marked by a significant red candlestick. The opening at approximately $305 saw a downward movement, reaching $297.93.
This descent initiated with a rejection at $312.53 on Wednesday, establishing resistance at that level. As of the current update, the price exhibits strong indications of continuing its downward trajectory towards the previous support level of $300.
