MATIC’s price swept a crucial support level on September 21 after the FOMC meeting, but the dip was bought aggressively near the $0.64 level. The price started a fresh increase after forming a support base near the $0.64 level.
The price tested the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $0.64 swing low to the $0.75 high, but it found bids near the $0.722 level. There was also a break below the $0.728 level, but the price stayed well above the 100 hourly simple moving average. The price tested the $0.70 level and started a new increase.
The pair could correct lower in the short term, but downsides will likely be limited below $0.70. More importantly, there is a major bullish flag formation with support near $0.729 on the hourly chart of the MATIC/USD pair. The pair will likely continue higher above the $0.832 and $0.850 levels in the near term.
Polygon price analysis for 1-day
On the other hand, if MATIC’s price gets rejected at the range low of $0.758, it will indicate weak buyers a rejection of the bearish impulse. In this case, a move towards the range high is unlikely, and Polygon might even resume the downtrend. In such a case, a move below $0.64 would invalidate the bullish thesis as it would complete a descending triangle pattern on MATIC/USDT 1-day chart.
MATIC‘s price is following a bullish path above $0.729. The next key resistance is near the $0.906 level, followed by $1.050. A proper close above the $1 level could set the pace for a push towards $1.50 in the near term.
A significant support base is forming near the $0.729 level. A downside break below this level may call for $0.70 or lower in the short term. Polygon bulls are likely to defend downsides aggressively near these levels.
