After Bitcoin and Ethereum registered losses over the last 24 hours, bearish tremors were felt across the broader market.

Similarly, Chainlink, VeChain and Uniswap traded in the red at press time and indicated further pullbacks over the coming days.

Chainlink inched closer towards $45.6-support after bearish price action over the last 24 hours. If this level is breached, another defensive line rested at $41.3. Interestingly, the aforementioned support also coincided with the 20-SMA (red) and this region could counter a short-term sell-off. A more establish buying area lay at the $35.5-mark and close to the 50-SMA and a breakdown from this would sound alarm bells in the market. Such a scenario could lead to another 30% retracement towards the 200-SMA at $23.6.

RSI was expected to continue south judging by its movement since late February. A fall below 40 could trigger an extended bearish outcome. On the opposing end, OBV’s uptrend suggested that buying pressure had not escaped the market just yet. If the $35-41 region is maintained over the coming days, another price swing could be on the cards.

VeChain [VET]

At the time of writing, losses in VeChain were kept at bay $0.198 and the 20-SMA acted as additional support. On the 4-hour timeframe- this level coincided with the 200-SMA. Hence, a sell-off can be expected if the press-time support is breached. This outcome could cause a 20% retracement towards a defensive line of $0.167. The 24-hour trading volumes clocked in at $2.5 Billion but expect this number to drop over the coming days.

Awesome Oscillator noted bearish momentum after VET peaked at $0.282. A fall below equilibrium would have a damaging effect on VET’s short-mid term trajectory. RSI maintained neutral territory but a fall below 50 could see a sharp southbound move.

Uniswap [UNI]

Uniswap broke south from a descending triangle and headed towards the $35-mark. There was still a chance for a bullish bounce back but $32-35 needed to be defended from selling pressure for such a favorable result.  The 50-SMA traded within the aforementioned support area and could offer respite in case of further dips. If this level also fails to cut losses, a retracement could take place all the way towards the $17.4- level, which was last seen during late February.

Squeeze Momentum Indicator’s green bars fell towards the half-line as momentum shifted towards the sellers. The first red bar below equilibrium would present a sell signal. The MACD’s bearish pattern was consistent with the SMI.
