Binance Coin’s recovery has been steady since the 19 May crash. While sellers have been prepared for corrections, BNB has managed to find higher support levels after two rallies. Since $434 has not yet been breached, BNB formed an ascending triangle on the 12-hour timeframe. While the pattern does generally see a break to the upside, a bearish broader market complicated matters. In a bullish outcome, BNB looked set for a 15% jump towards a resistance zone between $486 and $527. Lower highs on RSI
were also a positive sign.However, a bearish outcome cannot be discounted considering recent movement of the market leaders. Losing out on the bottom trendline could see BNB head back towards $348-support. According to MACD’s histogram, bullish momentum was actually declining over the past few days even though the Fast-moving line was above the Signal line.

Litecoin formed a symmetrical triangle but once again, direction of a breakout was not clear cut. A move above the upper trendline could result in 25% price rally towards a critical resistance zone at $240. On the other hand, a breakdown could drag LTC all the way to its demand zone between $116 and $141, resulting in a 30% retracement.
According to OBV, selling pressure has been kept at bay since the 19 May crash. If selling pressure dissipates, a favorable outcome can be expected moving forward. However, a breakout might take a few more days to culminate as ADX
has been declining and a move below 25 would indicate lateral movement.THETA

THETA’s rise above $8.21 was an important one as it cleared its first major resistance level post 19 May crash. However, its path head was a crucial one as the cryptocurrency eyed major swings over the coming days. Since THETA traded within an up-channel, the price was projected to break down from this bearish pattern. Losing out on $8.21 support could trigger a sharp downwards move and possibly towards $6. On the other hand, breaching past $11 could see an upwards swing.
With bullish momentum on the up after a twin peak setup, buyers were tipped to enforce a result in their favor. An ADX reading above 25 meant that a strong trend was present in the market.
