Bearish momentum deepens as technicals confirm downside dominance this week
Weekly technical readings for MNT remain strongly bearish, with the MACD on the weekly chart signaling a strong sell and the ADX indicating the absence of a clear trend. MNT continues to trade well below both the weekly MA-20 and MA-50, confirming medium- to long-term downside pressure. Oscillators, including the RSI, Stochastic RSI, and CCI, all point to oversold conditions, while Bull/Bear Power remains negative, suggesting sellers are in control. Key support is found at $0.5200, with initial resistance at the MA-20 near $0.6454.
Sideways bias expected as volatility caps Mantle’s breakout potential
For the next 7 days, Mantle is likely to trade within a $0.5200 to $0.5500 range, closely tracking recent volatility. The probability of a significant upward move is very low, given that none of the main weekly indicators are signaling a buy. The baseline scenario calls for a sideways move centered around $0.5343. A break above $0.5500 could signal a technical rebound, while a move below $0.5200 would increase downside risk.
Earlier, analysts noted that Mantle remained under persistent bearish pressure with little evidence of a bullish reversal. The latest developments, including ecosystem expansion efforts, have yet to improve market sentiment, with traders advised to monitor the $0.5200 support level for signs of renewed downside risk.
