April was one of the worst trading months for WAVES holders, registering a total loss of 76.5%. The altcoin turned down from the record high of $62.36 and breached multiple support levels before hitting its current foothold at $12.
On May 5th, the WAVES buyers attempted to breach an overhead resistance of $17; however, the ongoing sell-off in the crypto market raised the selling pressure. As a result, the altcoin dipped 24% lower to retest $12 support again.
However, even though the market continues to follow a red flag, the WAVES is 12% high on the intraday level, making its way to $17.

The bullish thesis invalidates if sellers dump the coin price below the $12 mark, threatening a freefall to 30%.
Technical indicator
The declining 50-day EMA offers a death crossover with a 200-day EMA. This sell signal could obstruct the potential bull run.
On a contrary note, a significant bullish divergence in the daily-RSI slope suggests the demand pressure at $12 support. The rising bullish momentum would bolster the $17 breakout.
- Resistance level- $17 and $20
- Support levels- $12 and $8.35
