The ‘but’ investors should watch out for…

While the metrics looked bullish, DOT’s market indicators revealed an ambiguous picture. For instance, the Exponential Moving Average (EMA) Ribbon pointed out that the bears were leading the market.

Moreover, the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) also registered a slight downtick, which was concerning. Nonetheless, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) suggested that the bulls might soon take over as it displayed the possibility of a bullish crossover.

DOT’s Money Flow Index (MFI) also registered an uptick, which was in the buyers’ favor.
