On the downside, MATIC has established clear support around the $0.57 and $0.61 marks. These support levels are areas where buyers have historically stepped in, preventing further declines.

The RSI has fluctuated around the 50 mark, indicating a balance between buying and selling pressures.

However, it hasn’t ventured into overbought territory (above 70), which aligns with the lack of sustained upward momentum in the price.
