Cosmos [ATOM] traders should look for these signs before going long

• Cosmos recovered by 15% over the last two days, with immediate resistance from the 50-day EMA still looming
• If buyers break this barrier, they could push ATOM toward the 200-day EMA

Cosmos [ATOM] recently rebounded from its long-term trendline support as the altcoin flashed a symmetrical triangle-like structure on its daily chart. This price action saw a strong recovery amid a Bitcoin rally towards its new all-time high above $75K.

Can ATOM sustain its bullish momentum, or will it face another pullback?

What to expect next?

ATOM bounced back from its critical trendline support (white, dashed) after witnessing a bullish rebound over the past few days. The altcoin was trading at $4.50 at press time, just above the 20-day EMA ($4.35) and the 50-day EMA ($4.47) – Both of which have been key resistance levels. A decisive close above these EMAs could set the stage for further gains towards the $5.66 resistance level.

However, if ATOM fails to hold above these EMAs, it may face another decline towards the $3.65 trendline support. This level has stood firm for the past few months.

The RSI stood at around 53, at the time of writing. It underlined neutral market momentum with a slightly high buying pressure. A consistent hike above the 60-mark could indicate renewed bullish sentiment. On the other hand, a dip below the 40-level would mean a weakening trend.

Key levels to watch

Support Levels: ATOM’s immediate support lay near $3.65, aligning with the long-term trendline. A break below this level could lead to a deeper decline towards $3.11 – another critical support level.

Resistance Levels: On the upside, ATOM seemed to face immediate resistance at the 50-day EMA ($4.47) and $5.66. A successful break above these levels could propel the altcoin towards testing higher levels, contingent on broader market sentiment.
