  • FIL escalated from a low of $61.29 to a high of $93.28 within Thursday’s intraday session 
  • The FIL/BTC pair is trailing at 0.002226 with a gain of 23.88% at press time.
  • Filecoin Network crosses Baseline Sustainability Target for the first time

The daily chart of FIL dictated a bearish trend for the token long before BTC’s vulnerability on Wednesday. The digital asset was exposed to the wrath of bears from the moment it broke out towards the downside from the ascending triangle pattern. 

FIL is currently trading at a low of 62% from its ATH of $236 which was established on April 1st of this year. The asset then continued to sink while maintaining a lethargic momentum. The bearish breakout from the ascending triangle pattern invalided the anticipation of a massive bull flag. 

The price action of FIL is now wrapped inside a bearish continuation pattern called the descending parallel channel. In accordance with pivot points, a break above the resistance of $169 would accommodate the price action to escape from the channel and revisit its ATH. 

At present, FIL is perfectly compressed between the 100 EMA(green) and 200 EMA(white), whereas the 200 EMA was disclosed as a major support level in yesterday’s massive selloff. The strong selling pressure has led the weekly chart to form three black crows. This particular pattern usually announces an upcoming price reversal which justifies the fact that recovery is imminent.

The CVIX of FIL is flashing 72, which means that traders must be prepared for colossal price fluctuations.
