Apecoin Price Bears Regain Momentum for a Bearish Rally

The Apecoin price has recently experienced an upward trend, which shows the bull’s strength in the market. The bears are seen to have regained momentum at the $0.7671 resistance level. This has led to the formation of a double-top pattern, which symbolizes a high probability of a bearish trend. 

Apecoin price is currently trading above both the 50-day and the 200-day simple moving averages (SMA). All this is about to change since the Apecoin price is seen dropping by forming red candlesticks. On the other hand, the SMAs are seen rising so as to cross above the Apecoin price. When both of the SMAs manage to cross above the Apecoin price, it will resemble the shift of Apecoin price from a bullish trend to a bearish trend.

Technical Indicators Signal Potential Downtrend

The relative strength index (RSI) also supports the probability of a bearish trend. The RSI is currently flowing at 64.25, dropping towards the 50-midline level. This has shown a high likelihood of the bears taking over the market. Furthermore, if the bears continue to control the market, they will target crossing below the 50-midline level, which, in turn, will show a high probability of a bearish rally happening. 

The moving average convergence divergence (MACD) also supports the chances of a bearish rally. The green histogram bars are seen decreasing in size and number as they fade out in color. On the other hand, the orange signal line is also on track to surpass the blue line of MACD. These movements on MACD also resemble the shift of Apecoin’s price from a bullish trend to a bearish trend.

If the bears continue to be in charge, the orange signal line should be able to cross the blue line. Apecoin’s price will aim to drop to $0.5446, which will favor the seller. On the other hand, if the bulls regain momentum, they will push the price high to $0.7906.
