After months of bearish pressure, has RUNE finally broken the curse of its prolonged downtrend?

With a fresh breakout above a key trendline and a dance around critical support levels, RUNE is at a crossroads that has traders buzzing. Could this be the turning point that RUNE hodlers have been waiting for, or is it just another false dawn?

In this analysis, we'll dissect RUNE's recent price action, identifying the crucial levels that could make or break its recovery. We'll also tackle the burning question: Is RUNE ready to reclaim its former glory, or are there better opportunities in the current market landscape?

  • The last few months of price action have been pretty poor; however, RUNE doesn't look as bad here as it has for the last few months.
  • RUNE has broken out of its main downtrend line, which is positive.
  • In the short term, it has found resistance at the horizontal level of $4.78, which we have long identified as a key level.
  • Currently, though, RUNE does sit on top of local support at $4.30, so it may be able to bounce from here and retest $4.78 if the wider market holds up.
  • If RUNE can break above $4.78, the next target is $6.08.
  • THORChain possibly re-visits the $3.38 horizontal support, but we think this can be a local bottom area.

Cryptonary's take

Overall, the setup is less bearish than what RUNE has been in recent months, so that's more positive for RUNE. However, just because RUNE looks less bearish than it in the recent past doesn't mean it's the opportunity to go for. We do see better opportunities in the majors and also the bluechip memes (WIF and POPCAT). Therefore, our focus has been there rather than laggards such as RUNE. And with the price action we've seen, we've been proven right.
