ApeCoin (APE) continues to touch new lows: prospects for long-term recovery?
The recent decline in the prices of crypto ApeCoin (APE) has revealed the difficulty of bullish traders in sustaining a meaningful reversal, mainly due to the prevailing bearish trend that characterizes APE.
In fact, Apecoin has faced constant downward pressure for most of the year. Recently, it tried to break through the support level at $1.09, but the rebound attempt was quickly thwarted by the downward trend.
This resulted in the $1.09 support level turning into resistance on Oct. 9. Despite the efforts of buyers, the price of the APE remained below the new resistance level.
However, technical signs indicate that buyers may soon see positive developments. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has moved firmly out of the oversold zone, although it is still below the neutral level of 50.
Similarly, the On Balance Volume (OBV) rose from 25.2 million to 40.25 million between Oct. 10 and Oct. 14. With Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) turning positive, there is a possibility of seeing a long-term bullish reaction.
However, data from Coinalyze indicate weak enthusiasm in the futures market. Open Interest (OI) declined despite the slight increase in price, suggesting a decline in interest in buying Apecoin.
Similarly, the funding rate has fluctuated, highlighting uncertainty among market participants. This could hamper the prospects for a long-term bullish rally.
