Following the path of a rounding bottom pattern, the NEAR/USDT pair is gradually nearing the All-Time High resistance of $20.6. This recovery rally initiated during the latter part of March has sliced through a monthly resistance of $13.3 and registered a 104% gain from the $8 bottom support.
The news-driven rally encouraged the buyers to breach the following resistance of $17.5; however, the sellers undermined the demand pressure and forced a candle closing below the resistance. A 12% rejection tail attached to the daily candle indicates the aggressive selling on the higher levels.
Today, the NEAR price is down by another 4%, forming an evening star candle pattern at $17.5 resistance. Therefore, the minor retracement may drop to 20-day EMA dynamic support before continuing the bullish rally.
Note: The coin holders can maintain a strong bullish sentiment until this EMA support is intact.
Technical indicator
A bullish sequence among the rising EMAs(20, 50, 100, and 200) maintains a solid bullish trend for NEAR. These emails can provide strong support to coin price during the occasional pullback.
However, a Daily-RSI slope displays a bearish divergence concerning the two upswings at $17.5. The downsloping RSI line nosedived below the 14-SMA leading to a minor correction.
