Between mid-August and early September, Lido fluctuated within the $1.7 – $1.5 range. The range-high near $1.7 had a confluence with an H12 bearish order block (OB) of $1.67 – $1.74 (red).
At press time, the sharp price rejection at $1.6 dropped LDO lower towards the key short-term support of $1.5. If the previous trend continues, the $1.5 could ease the weekend sell pressure.
Such a move could set LDO to rebound towards 50-EMA (Exponential Moving Average) or the bearish OB of $1.67 – $1.74. However, LDO could head lower to $1.380 if an extreme short-term sell pressure cracks the $1.5 support.
Meanwhile, the RSI and CMF retreated deeper into the lower ranges, reinforcing elevated selling pressure and capital outflows from the LDO market.
