During the first half of January, the RUNE price continued to resonate in a narrow range extending from $8.1 to $5.7. Such consolidation phase represents a short break for price action before they continue their primary trend.

On January 19th, the token price gave a strong fallout from the $5.7 support, providing a selling opportunity for crypto traders. In just five days, the RUNE price lost 40% in value and plunged to the crucial support of $3.4.

The technical chart represents a bearish alignment among the crucial SMAs(20, 50, 100, and 200). These SMA lines could provide strong resistance during a possible bull run.

The daily-Relative Strength index(24) represents a sudden dip to the oversold territory, indicating the sellers might have pushed the token beyond its fair value.
