PolkaDOT price Holds Ground

After forming a base above the $5.50 support, DOT price started a decent increase. The price was able to clear the $5.85 and $6.00 resistance levels to move into a positive zone, like Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Polkadot even surpassed the $6.65 resistance zone and settled above the 100 simple moving average (4 hours). Finally, the bears appeared near the $7.75 zone. A high was formed near $7.77 and the price is now correcting gains. There was a drop below the $7.20 and $7.00 levels.

DOT declined below the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $6.31 swing low to the $7.77 high. However, it is still above the $6.65 zone and the 100 simple moving average (4 hours).

There is also a key bullish trend line forming with support near $6.65 on the 4-hour chart of the DOT/USD pair. The trend line is close to the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $6.31 swing low to the $7.77 high.

Immediate resistance is near the $7.05 level. The next major resistance is near $7.20. A successful break above $7.20 could start another strong rally. In the stated case, the price could easily rally toward $7.75 in the near term. The next major resistance is seen near the $8.00 zone.

More Losses in DOT?

If DOT price fails to start a fresh increase above $7.05, it could continue to move down. The first key support is near the $6.65 level and the trend line.

The next major support is near the $6.30 level, below which the price might decline to $5.70. Any more losses may perhaps open the doors for a move toward the $5.00 support zone.
