The falling wedge sometimes doesn’t see a breakout to the upside reach the price level that the pattern started at, but in this instance, XRP was able to. This was not a longer-term bullish development, however, as the price was strongly rejected on its attempt to climb past $0.3.
Subsequent trading saw XRP pushed further down, with the crypto holding a value of $0.28 at the time of writing- about 6.8% in losses after rejection at the resistance level.
The MACD projected strong bullish momentum, but the distance between the MACD and Signal lines hinted at overbought market conditions and XRP could see further retracement to the $0.261 and $0.253-levels of support.
Basic Attention Token [BAT]

Last week, Basic Attention Token broke out of the range from $0.2 to $0.27, a range it had previously been trading within. Over the past few days, BAT has been unable to keep its upward momentum going.
A rejection at the $0.355-level of resistance saw BAT slide lower and eventually lose the $0.32-level to the bears as well.
At the time of writing, the Awesome Oscillator showed that bearish momentum was on the rise. However, since it had not crossed above zero, a bullish twin peaks formation could yet materialize.
Hence, a retest of the $0.27-level can offer trading opportunities, with long positions likely to be profitable ones.
FTX Token [FTT]

Using the Fixed Range Volume Profile from the beginning of January, the $9.66-level was highlighted as the Point of Control. It is an important level of support, as evidenced by the multiple bounces the price has seen off this level.
FTT climbed past its previous high at $11.3 to touch $12, but was met by a lot of selling pressure. At the time of writing, FTT was valued at $11.14 – The next levels of notable support were at $10.5 and $9.66 if FTT closes a session under the $11.2-$11.3 area.
The Stochastic RSI was correcting from the overbought zone while the RSI registered a value of 64 to denote bullish strength.
