RSR has broken out from a descending resistance line and is approaching the Sept highs at $0.06. Once it manages to move above this horizontal resistance area, there would be no more resistance left until the $0.1 all-time high price.

THORChain (RUNE)

  • Current Price: $11.06
  • Market Cap: $2.85 Billion
  • Market Cap Rank: #63

THORChain is a decentralized liquidity protocol. It provides users to exchange assets through various networks. RUNE is the native token of the protocol and serves as the base currency.

RUNE has broken out from a descending resistance line. It returned to validate it as support on Nov 18 (green icon) before bouncing and moving upwards. The bounce also served to validate the $10 horizontal area as support. 

As long as the token is trading above these levels, the trend can be considered bullish.

Despite these positive news, the SXP price is lagging considerably, and is barely holding on above the $2.10 horizontal support area.

It seems to be trading inside an ascending parallel channel, which is usually a corrective structure.
