NEXO dropped sharply from $0.95 in early February but saw increased demand at $.550. The strong recovery has seen NEXO appreciate over 40% since 13 March. At press time, bulls faced a key obstacle at $0.777 – a confluence of resistance levels of 200 EMA and $0.777. 

The daily chart was bullish at press time, with an RSI of 66. Similarly, the OBV (On Balance Volume) increased sharply – indicating increased trading volumes that boosted buying pressure in the past few days. Moreover, the Average Directional Index (ADX) sloped upwards, showing a strong uptrend. 

As such, bulls could re-enter the market if NEXO closes above $0.777 and confirms further uptrend. The target would be $0.856, and the stop loss would be $0.726. But bulls must clear the hurdle at $0.830 to reach $0.856. 

A daily candlestick close below $0.777 could attract bears to devalue NEXO. The key supports southwards include $0.726, $0.696, and $0.613. These levels could act as short-selling targets if such a downswing occurs. 

Quarterly HODLers lagged

It shows monthly holders outperformed quarterly holders in the recent rally. Quarterly holders could see more gains if NEXO clears the $0.777 hurdle.

NEXO also recorded a sharp rise in development activity on 25 March, which could boost investor confidence and prop up NEXO’s value further. However, investors should watch for the obstacle at $0.777 and BTC’s price action before making moves.
