The worst-performing cryptocurrencies have come under renewed selling pressure after hitting recent highs.

As a result, altcoins have slipped below moving average lines, accelerating their decline. Others have been stranded between the moving average lines as they attempt to trend.

FTX Token

FTX Token ($FTT) is in an uptrend as it recovers from its previous decline. Currently, the altcoin has fallen below the moving average lines. Buyers have not been able to keep the price above the $5.50 mark. The altcoin's slump ended after it fell to a low of $1.44 and then recovered.

The extended candlestick tail points to strong buying at the $1.44 support level. On the upside, the altcoin will resume its positive trend if buyers keep the price above the moving average lines. $FTT is now worth $2.14.

According to these characteristics, $FTT is the worst altcoin among cryptocurrencies.

The current price: $2.19

Market capitalization: $763,106,441

On January 11, 2024, the altcoin was rejected as it rallied to resistance at $2,200. MKR has now fallen below the 21-day SMA but remains above the 50-day SMA. The price movement is expected to be capped by the moving average lines. In other words, the altcoin will develop a trend after the moving average lines are broken. For example, if the altcoin rallies, it will rise above the 21-day SMA with the upside momentum extending to a high of $2,200.
