A SAFE/KRW trading pair will allow direct trading between the SAFE token and the South Korean won, making it more accessible to a broader audience, particularly in the South Korean market.

Meanwhile, the strong demand from derivatives traders caused the Safe price to experience a massive rally. According to Coinglass data, open interest for SAFE in the futures market has surged by 50% over the past day, reaching $12.57 million, much higher than the $5.5 million recorded at the beginning of the year. However, the Safe price might fall as investors sell their holdings to secure profits.

Safe Price Technical Outlook

The Safe price significantly increased on Thursday morning, rallying over 20% to the $1.17 mark before early profiteering, which saw the token fall like a dead weight in the air to $0.98. Despite the bulls showing strength in the market, they must bring down the $1.16 resistance barrier to allow already sidelined traders to join the trend without fearing a price correction.

Meanwhile, the absence of the 200-day MA indicates the asset might be relatively new or the timeframe is too short for the indicator to be meaningful. However, a closer look at the market tilts the odds towards the downside.

The RSI (Relative Strength Index) has dwindled below the 50-mean level, currently at 41.46. This shows that the bears are in control of the market, in which increased selling pressure may see the token plunge to the 30-oversold region. 

On the other hand, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is strongly negative, with the MACD line (-0.0473) crossing below the orange Signal line (-0.0459). The histograms are waning, showing increased selling momentum in the Safe market. 

Can the Bulls Gain Control and Rally to the $1.88 Target?

Based on the 1-day chart timeframe, Safe’s price upholds a bearish picture, showing intense selling pressure. Despite the slight pullback, the bulls still show potential as they aim to obliterate the $1.16 resistance level. A breach and break above the $1.16 mark would lead to gains extrapolating to the $1.88 mark. 

On the downside, if the pullback continues, the $0.91 minor support zone will cushion against downward pressure, representing a zone of previous accumulation and strong buyer interest.
