WIF Price Analysis
As seen in the 4-hour chart provided by TradingView below, the WIF token printed three consecutive bullish candles, with the second candle printing 20% in gains, claiming a high of $1.37, where the meme coin is the resistance level. In the next candle, the altcoin soared almost 4%, once again unable to break above $1.37.
It is clear from the 4-hour chart above that WIF price action is situated in the upper end of the Bollinger Bands, but the altcoin failed to break out despite retesting the upper band multiple times because the region now acts as resistance. Another important resistance level is $1.44, which also needs to be broken to confirm a move towards $1.8 in the near future.
On the other hand, the On-Balance Volume (OBV) indicator shows a sudden spike in the buying pressure for the WIF token. The gradient of the line aligns with the price action on the 4-hour time frame as the meme coin continues to hold above the important $1 psychological support level.
Bluntz Capital, an analyst on X (formerly Twitter), claims that the recent retest of the support at $0.9 was the bottom for the WIF token. The analyst highlighted “signs of life” for dogwifhat and claims that there is a decent chance for higher prices in the coming days.
More importantly, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) for WIF on the daily chart above reads a value below of 39.99 which means that the bears maintain control of the meme coin’s price action. The altcoin rebounded from the oversold RSI levels and is now aiming for higher prices.
