Looking at the 4-hour chart for MATIC/USDT, the 20 EMA line has crossed below the 50 EMA line, which is a significant bearish flag that investors need to take note of. However, MATIC’s price has risen after establishing a low following the cross, as MATIC’s price now looks to challenge the 20 EMA line.
Looking at a bullish scenario for MATIC, the RSI line has crossed above the RSI SMA line. Should MATIC rise above the 20 and 50 EMA lines, then the two lines may cross bullishly and MATIC’s price will rise.
If the 20 EMA holds out at resistance on the 4-hour chart, then the bullish thesis will be invalidated.
