Crypto analyst Burak Kesmeci pointed out in a post on CryptoQuant Insights that there were two key moving averages for investors to keep an eye on.
At the time of writing, these daily moving averages were at $0.26 and $0.15.
The analyst noted that a breach of the overhead resistance could translate into quick gains for the token.
The 1-day price chart outlined a range (purple) that TRX has been trading within over the past month. The range reached from $0.274 to $0.22, with the mid-point at $0.247.
The selling pressure across the market in recent hours drove TRON below the mid-range support.
The OBV has formed lower lows during the range formation. This was a piece of bad news for the bulls. The consolidation period was not accompanied by accumulation, but rather by distribution.
This indicated that the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level that coincided with the range lows might soon be lost.
