Why MATIC is all set for a potential rebound from this defending zone

Disclaimer: The findings of the following analysis are the sole opinions of the writer and should not be considered investment advice.

• MATIC’s recent bullish comeback aided buyers in finding a close above the near-term EMAs.
• The crypto’s Exchange outflows and funding rate reaffirmed a bullish strength.

The recent buying endeavors pushed Polygon [MATIC] above the constraints of the 20 EMA (red) and the 50 EMA (cyan) as the price reentered its sideways track in the $0.77-0.93 range.

The bearish flag marked an expected breakdown toward the $0.73 zone. The eventual bullish comeback aided the buyers in altering the near-term narrative to their fancy.

Here’s AMBCrypto’s Price Prediction for Polygon [MATIC] for 2023-24

The altcoin has now approached the upper band of the Bollinger Bands (BB). The sellers could seek to curb the streak of green candles before a reversal in the coming sessions.

At press time, MATIC was trading at $0.8615, up by 5.15% in the last 24 hours.

After an expected reversal from the $0.93 resistance barrier, the alt saw a death cross on its EMAs to depict a strong selling edge.

Nonetheless, the recent rebound from the $0.77 support induced a buying rally toward the upper band of the BB.

MATIC’s solid double-digit growth in the last four days aided the alt in retesting the $0.87 resistance barrier. With the 20/50 EMAs now looking north, buyers should look for plausible bullish crossovers.

Continued growth on the charts could slam into the barrier of the 200 EMA followed by the $0.93-mark. 

An immediate bearish pull would likely find rebounding grounds from the trendline support. This rebound could bring forth profitable entry triggers for the buyers.

The Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) witnessed lower peaks over the last few days. This trajectory bearishly diverged with the price action’s peaks. Nonetheless, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) maintained its bullish position at press time.

Empirical readings suggested that a spike in exchange outflows alongside a positive funding rate encouraged a corresponding increase in price.

To top it up, an analysis of the MATIC Futures Open Interest marked a staggering 31.9% 24 hours increase alongside a slight increase in price over the past day. This reading suggested the underlying bullish sentiment in the futures market.

Finally, investors/traders must keep a close eye on Bitcoin’s movement as MATIC shares a relatively high correlation with the king coin.
