GRT was able to blow past the $0.1365 barrier over the past 24 hours and continued to trade above this significant mark at press time. Following the break above this threshold, traders then attempted to boost the altcoin’s price above the subsequent resistance level at $0.1750 but were only able to elevate GRT to a high of $0.1649.

The opportunity to make a profit was too tempting for bears, as the altcoin’s price retraced from its 24-hour high to its current level. Currently, GRT’s price is resting on the previously breached level at $0.1365. Should it break below this support, then it may be at risk of falling to $0.1135 in the following few days.

Traders and investors will want to note that technical indicators on GRT’s daily chart show that buyers have started exiting the market. Firstly, the slope of the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator was transitioning from positive to negative. This suggested that GRT’s price may undergo a bearish reversal soon.

In addition to the bearishness expressed by the MACD indicator, the daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) line crossed below the RSI Simple Moving Average (SMA) line over the past 24 hours. This could serve as a signal that sellers have gained the upper hand against bulls on GRT’s chart, and may attempt to push the cryptocurrency’s price down in the next 24-48 hours.
