BNB Price Dives 20%
In the past few days, BNB price saw a steady decline from the $580 resistance, like Ethereum and Bitcoin. In the past 2-3 sessions, the bears took control and pushed the price below the $500 support zone.
The price is down 20% and it even spiked below the $475 support. A low was formed at $466.1 and the price is now showing a lot of bearish signs. There are hardly any signs of a recovery wave, and the price is well below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $580 swing high to the $466 low.
The price is now trading below $500 and the 100-hourly simple moving average. If there is a recovery wave, the price could face resistance near the $485 level. The next resistance sits near the $492 level. There is also a connecting bearish trend line forming with resistance at $495 on the hourly chart of the BNB/USD pair.
A clear move above the $495 zone could send the price higher. In the stated case, BNB price could test $520 or the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $580 swing high to the $466 low.
A close above the $520 resistance might set the pace for a larger increase toward the $535 resistance. Any more gains might call for a test of the $550 level in the coming days.
More Losses?
If BNB fails to clear the $492 resistance, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $465 level.
The next major support is near the $455 level. The main support sits at $450. If there is a downside break below the $450 support, the price could drop toward the $432 support. Any more losses could initiate a larger decline toward the $420 level.
