The one-day market structure of MATIC has been bullish since 22nd October. Not only was the range (yellow) breached convincingly, but MATIC consolidated beneath the $0.637 resistance before another rally in November.

The RSI has been above neutral 50 since mid-October, reflecting intense upward momentum at press time alongside the structure. The On-Balance Volume has also increased significantly in the past month as buying volume was steady.

The next higher timeframe resistance levels were the $0.89 and $0.97 levels. If MATIC faced rejection at $0.89, a drop to the $0.75-$0.8 region was possible. This would likely offer a good risk-to-reward buying opportunity targeting $1 and above.

However, the huge leap in the dormant circulation on the 9th of November coincided with MATIC’s minor dip from $0.862 to $0.812. The large dormant token movement could see a wave of selling in the coming days.

The MVRV ratio was also at highs not seen since April. This meant that holders would likely be tempted to book profits and could force a minor pullback. The Santiment chart posted on 9th November showed wallets continued to accumulate MATIC.

The $0.88 and $0.97 levels were also possible candidates for a local top for MATIC.

The lower timeframe charts suggested that a move above $0.85 and retest could offer a buying opportunity targeting $0.89 and $0.96, which were close to the liquidity pools highlighted in the Hyblock chart.
