For this bullish momentum to continue, Tezos must climb above the resistance at $1.80 and break above the 2019 current high at $1.85.

Short Term Price Prediction Against USD

If the bulls continue to break back above the $1.74 resistance, immediate higher resistance is located at $1.80 and $1.86 (2019 highs). Further resistance is found at $1.88 and $1.99-$2 (1.618 Fib Extension). On the other hand, if the sellers step in and push the market lower, support can be found at $1.65. Beneath this, support is located at $1.55, $1.42 (.382 Fib Retracement), and $1.29 (.5 Fib Retracement).

The technical indicators suggest that it may be a little overextended as the Stochastic RSI trades in overbought conditions and is ready for a bearish crossover signal.

Against Bitcoin, Tezos has also continued to climb but was halted by resistance at the 0.00025 BTC level, which is provided by the long term bearish .886 Fibonacci Retracement level. XTZ reversed from here but managed to find strong support at 0.0002275 BTC – allowing the coin to bounce higher.

For the bullish run to continue, Tezos must climb over the 0.00025 BTC resistance. If the coin was to drop beneath 0.0002 BTC, the market could potentially turn for a deeper correction.

Short Term Price Prediction Against BTC

If the bulls can break the current 0.00025 BTC resistance, immediate higher resistance can be found at 0.00026 BTC and 0.0002625 BTC (1.618 Fib Extension level). This is then followed with resistance at 0.000271 BTC, which is the current 2019 high.

Alternatively, if the sellers regroup and push the market lower, support can be expected at 0.0002275 BTC. Beneath this, added support is found at 0.00021 BTC and 0.00020 BTC.

The Stochastic RSI is also extremely overbought here as it is primed for a bearish crossover signal that should send the market lower.
