Crypto News Market Analysis Rari Governance Token Syscoin Trading

Top 3 Coins to Watch Today: SYS, RGT, GST – May 3 Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at today’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll explain what the coin is, then dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you decide.

1. Syscoin (SYS)

Syscoin SYS is a full Layer-1 and Layer-2 blockchain solution built to combine industry-proven technology to support cutting-edge applications, all in one network. The project’s goal is to build a protocol that transforms the blockchain experience and combines the best of Bitcoin and Ethereum. Through Bitcoin merge-mining, Syscoin transforms Bitcoin’s Proof-of-Work security and decentralisation into a functional and scalable solution. Syscoin’s token platform currently features a custom notary API, fungible tokens, NFTs, and fractionalised NFTs.

SYS Price Analysis

At the time of writing, SYS is ranked the 159th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.4138. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

SYS has ranged between approximately $0.6865 and $0.3965 since late February. It is currently near the bottom of this range.

An inefficiently traded area near $0.4376 could provide resistance. However, eager bears should be wary since the price is very oversold relative to its local range.

Above, the 18 EMA and April’s consolidation low overlap with an inefficiently traded area at $0.4884. This area might also provide resistance during a retest. 

A more substantial rally may seek to return to the local range highs. This move would clear bear’s stops and may target an inefficiently traded area near the April monthly open at $0.6170.

Over the weekend, the price tested possible support at $0.4098, near the midpoint of October 2021’s accumulation range and relatively equal swing lows. It seems likely that the price will dip deeper into this support to run bulls’ stops.

If this support breaks, $0.3627 could provide bulls with their next level of interest. This level saw significant buying on a retracement before November’s rally and could provide support again.

Just below, $0.3090 may also provide support. This region had a significant five-week accumulation before early October 2021’s bullish rally and April 2021’s sudden upward spike.

2. Rari Governance Token (RGT)

The Rari Governance Token RGT is the native token behind Rari Capital. Rari Capital is a non-custodial DeFi Robo-advisor that autonomously earns users yield. It is a decentralised protocol for lending and borrowing. The Rari Governance Token is used for fee discounts and protocol governance.

RGT Price Analysis

At the time of writing, RGT is ranked the 294th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$10.65. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

RGT has been in a downtrend since early 2022. Last week saw an acceleration to the downside as hackers drained $80 million from its liquidity pools.

The sharp move to the downside created an inefficiently traded area between $11.59 and $12.55, which may provide resistance on a retest. This zone has confluence with the 9 EMA.

If this resistance breaks, the price may retest the bottom of March’s consolidation near $13.35. This area has confluence with the 18 EMA and soon the 40 EMA. 

A more significant rally could target the bottom of January’s consolidation, near $20.14. This climb may not happen until the overall market’s conditions turn more bullish.

Below, there is no price action to suggest higher-probability support levels. Extensions from March’s consolidation range hint at downside targets near $10.50, $8.00, and $5.50. The price is currently testing the closest of these levels.

3. Green Satoshi Token (GST)

Green Satoshi Token GST is the game token of STEPN — a Web 3.0 lifestyle app with inbuilt fun social elements and gamification design. STEPN is the first move-to-earn NFT game where players earn GST tokens by walking, jogging, and running outdoors while wearing NFT sneakers. GST tokens can also be used to level up and mint new sneakers, and players can sell/rent their NFT sneakers on the App Marketplace.

GST Price Analysis

At the time of writing, GST is ranked the 714th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$5.84. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

GST has seen massive volatility recently as STEPN’s other coin, GMT, went on its parabolic run. GST’s price climbed 147% during April, dropped 60%, and is now retesting possible resistance.

Above the April monthly open, $5.73 to $6.06 could provide resistance. Breaking through this resistance could reach near $7.35, which is approximately the midpoint of last week’s long upper wick. If the price breaks this level, last week’s high near $9.45 provides another reasonable target.

Bulls stepped in on each recent drop below $5.14. This level could provide support again and has confluence with the 18 EMA. A move below this level might see support near the 40 EMA and accumulation on the weekly, near $4.61.

A more significant move down could target an old inefficiently traded area on the weekly between $4.05 and $3.67. The lower portion of this range, under $3.81, may provide higher-probability support.

Crypto News Fantom Internet Computer Market Analysis NEAR Protocol Trading

Top 3 Coins to Watch Today: FTM, ICP, NEAR – May 2 Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at today’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll explain what the coin is, then dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you decide.

1. Fantom (FTM)

Fantom FTM is a directed acyclic graph (DAG) smart contract platform providing decentralised finance (DeFi) services to developers using its own bespoke consensus algorithm. Together with its in-house token FTM, Fantom aims to solve problems associated with smart-contract platforms – specifically transaction speed, which developers say they have reduced to under two seconds.

FTM Price Analysis

At the time of writing, FTM is ranked the 50th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.7426. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

FTM‘s bounce during Q1 ran into resistance near the old monthly highs. This rejection created a set of relatively equal highs near $1.60, possibly forming the next bullish leg’s target.

Currently, the price is testing possible support near the weekly open, around $0.6911. This level also has confluence with the 78.6% retracement of the current local range and the 18 and 40 EMAs. 

If this level fails to provide support, a zone from $0.6534 to $0.6230 might mark a possible swing low or consolidation area. This zone is between the 61.8% and 75.6% retracement of early August’s swing.

A more bearish tone in the market could propel the price lower. The lows, near $0.5930, might mark an area of possible support as well as a bearish target.

2. Internet Computer (ICP)

The Internet Computer ICP is the world’s first blockchain that runs at web speed with unbounded capacity. It also represents the third major blockchain innovation, alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum – a blockchain computer that scales smart contract computation and data, runs them at web speed, processes and stores data efficiently, and provides powerful software frameworks to developers. By making this possible, the Internet Computer enables the complete reimagination of software, providing a revolutionary new way to build tokenised internet services, pan-industry platforms, decentralised financial systems, and even traditional enterprise systems and websites.

ICP Price Analysis

At the time of writing, ICP is ranked the 37th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$13.10. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

During Q1, ICP also turned the corner, breaking a key swing high. This move could suggest a longer-term bullish trend.

The swing high near $20.24 stands out as a bullish target and marks an area of probable resistance. Further continuation could reach into possible resistance starting near $23.12.

Even if the bearish trend continues, a stop run at the recent swing low near $13.01 into possible support beginning near $12.75 is reasonable. If the price reaches further down, the swing low and possible support near $12.13 might provide another downside target. 

The area near $11.95 could also provide support. However, a drop this far could suggest a stop run below the higher-timeframe relatively equal lows near $11.40 into possible support beginning around $10.88.

3. Near Protocol (NEAR)

NEAR Protocol is a decentralised application platform designed to make apps usable on the web. The network runs on a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism called Nightshade, which aims to offer scalability and stable fees. NEAR uses human-readable account names, unlike the cryptographic wallet addresses common to Ethereum. NEAR also introduces unique solutions to scaling problems and has its own consensus mechanism, called “Doomslug”.

NEAR Price Analysis

At the time of writing, NEAR is ranked the 19th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$11.98. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

After its uptrend during Q1, NEAR has retraced 45% from its highs to support at the retracement of around $10.15.

The price shifted market structure to run to the consolidation lows near $12.11, just under the monthly open. A continued bearish trend in the market may create support just below, between $11.84 and $11.25.  

On the other hand, if the current resistance breaks, the price might find resistance near $17.98, whereas mid-January buyers may still be trapped in longs.

Crypto News NFTs Ukraine

Ukraine Launches Website for Donating and Buying NFTs

The Ukrainian government has launched a website for NFT (non-fungible token) donations in an attempt to raise funds to aid the country’s military forces in their ongoing conflict with Russia.

Supporting the Ukrainian Military With NFT Donations

The new marketplace, which comes with an ETH address for everyone wishing to donate, will host a wide range of NFTs, including the popular MoonCat collection and the Ethereum-based CryptoPunks.

So far, the Ukrainian government has received over US$100 million from crypto donations, an amount acquired shortly after digital assets exchange Kraken and the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) joined the charitable efforts last month.

The proceeds were largely used to buy the necessary equipment for Ukraine’s military arm, including bulletproof vests, medicine, and general supplies.

Blockchain, crypto and NFTs will not stop missiles, said Alex Bornyakov, the Deputy Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, “but [they] do offer a way to protect our defenders and rebuild Ukraine as an innovation-friendly country”:

While the Ukrainian government is happy to attract crypto donations, recent news of its limiting crypto purchases has baffled the wider community. As Crypto News Australia reported last week, the National Bank of Ukraine has prohibited citizens from buying more than 100,000 UAH (approximately US$3,400) worth of crypto per month.

Blockchain Crypto News Crypto Wallets Toncoin

Telegram’s 550 Million Users Can Now Send Crypto Via Chat

Users of the instant messaging app Telegram can now easily buy, send and receive crypto in-chat using the app’s newly released wallet bot:

The wallet bot, which runs on the Telegram-designed TON blockchain, simplifies crypto transfers between Telegram users. Initially, users will be limited to transferring Toncoin (TON) only, although they will be able to purchase both TON and Bitcoin (BTC):

TON’s price gained around 18 percent following the announcement, jumping from US$1.92 to US$2.28. At the time of writing TON was holding on to most of those gains, with the price sitting at US$2.25.

How Does the Wallet Bot Work?

The new wallet bot allows Telegram users to buy crypto (TON or BTC) in-app using a bank card and transfer TON to other users. Once users have added the wallet bot to their attachment menu, they can use the wallet button to send TON to any user they’re chatting to. 

While the bot only allows for user-to-user transfers for now, the TON Foundation expects its functionality will expand to include consumer-to-business payments in future.

The addition of crypto transfers to Telegram follows a recent trend by social media and messaging apps towards implementing crypto payments systems. Twitter has added support for Bitcoin and Ethereum tipping in the past few months and the Meta-owned messaging app WhatsApp has been trialling crypto transfers using its new Novi wallet since December.

TON’s History with Telegram

The TON blockchain started life in 2018 as a Telegram project and was initially known as the Telegram Open Network. However, after a legal battle with the US Securities and Exchange Commission over the sale of unregistered securities, Telegram gave up control of the project in 2020 to the community driven, open-source TON Foundation. In 2022, TON changed its name to The Open Network to highlight its separation from Telegram and its open-source nature.

According to the TON Foundation, the TON blockchain is designed to be a fully decentralised, ultra-fast, low-fee and environmentally friendly blockchain that can meet the needs of large-scale apps such as Telegram, which currently boasts around 550 million users.

Bitcoin Crypto News Cryptocurrencies Cryptocurrency Law Cryptocurrency Tax

Panama Passes Crypto Bill Exempting Digital Assets From Capital Gains Tax

One by one, nation states are taking steps towards becoming attractive destinations for the burgeoning digital asset sector. The latest to do so is international financial centre Panama, which has just passed a bill exempting crypto from capital gains tax:

Investment and Employment Boost

A plenary session of the Panamanian Legislative Assembly has approved a bill (40-0) regulating the use of crypto in the Central American country:

Project Law No. 697, which regulates the commercialisation and use of cryptocurrencies, the issuance of digital value, the tokenisation of precious metals and other goods, payment systems and dictates other provisions, was approved in the third debate.

Panamanian national assembly, Twitter

Congressman Gabriel Silver, who has actively promoted the bill, announced: “Crypto Law approved in third debate! This will help Panama become a hub of innovation and technology in Latin America!”

Last week, he argued that the bill aimed to “give legal stability to crypto assets in Panama [and] develop the crypto industry in the country to attract more investments and generate more employment”. Silver has since added:

The only thing missing is for the President to sign it. Thank you to all who helped. This will help create jobs and financial inclusion.

Gabriel Silver, Panama Congressman

Panama Steps Up its Game

Increasingly, we’re seeing countries, cities and regions implementing attractive regulatory frameworks to attract crypto capital and talent.

They don’t need to go as far as El Salvador and the Central African Republic and make bitcoin legal tender. Many have instead opted for zero capital gains tax, including the Swiss city of Lugano, as well as Roatán in Honduras and Madeira in Portugal.

In fact, Bitcoin educator Stefan Livera has argued that “removing capital gains from bitcoin spending is more important than legal tender laws”, and he may well be right.

The logic is that in doing so, bitcoin or cryptocurrencies become de facto legal tender as the act of spending does not constitute a capital gains tax event. This is also attractive to Bitcoiners as citizens have the ability to opt in, unlike legal tender laws, which are imposed from above by central authorities.

Panama’s latest move provides a clear signal to competing jurisdictions that when it comes to luring crypto investment and employment, it means serious business.

Binance Blockchain Crypto News Markets Social media Steem

Social Blockchain Token STEEM Explodes 60% Following Major Exchange Listings

Steem (STEEM), the native cryptocurrency of the social media-focused Steem blockchain, has surged over 60 percent following an announcement from Binance that the exchange would start offering a STEEM/USDT trading pair from April 22.

Immediately following the announcement, before Binance even listed STEEM, its price went virtually vertical, surging from US$0.36 to $US0.56 in just a few hours. Once trading began on Binance, STEEM’s price increased further to $US0.61 – an overall gain of over 60 percent. 

What is the Steem Blockchain?

Steem blockchain was created in 2016 by Ned Scott, co-founder of BitShares, and Daniel Larimar, lead developer of the EOS blockchain. Steem aims to reward people who actively contribute content on social media. It incentivises constructive participation on social platforms by providing a non-censorable monetisation layer that rewards creators of digital content with cryptocurrency.  

The flagship platform running on Steem is Steemit, a Reddit-like social blogging platform that offers users crypto rewards based on participation. There are currently more than 400 social media applications actively using the Steem blockchain.

STEEM Price Action Since Binance Listing

In the days since its Binance listing, STEEM retraced most of its gains, bottoming out at around US$0.40 before again surging in the past two days. At the time of writing the price of STEEM was sitting at US$0.56, around 54 percent higher than its pre-listing price – making it the 254th largest cryptocurrency by market capitalisation.

According to data from CoinGecko, STEEM’s price is still down 93.1 percent from its all-time high of US$8.19, which it hit on January 3, 2018, at the height of the 2017-18 bull run, indicating there may still be considerable room for price growth in the medium to long term.

STEEM’s price surge on the back of a major exchange listing is a familiar story. For example, in December Measurable Data Token (MDT) gained 90 percent in a single day after its Coinbase Pro listing; similarly, IDEX surged over 85 percent in December after it was listed on Huobi.

Crypto News Ethereum NFTs Solana

Solana NFT Project ‘Okay Bears’ Sets Record Day 1 Sales

As Solana continues to challenge Ethereum’s dominance of the NFT ecosystem, the former’s new profile picture project Okay Bears generated more trading volume on its first day than any rival’s.

With 10,000 unique avatars, Okay Bears launched this week on Solana NFT marketplace Magic Eden at a mint price of 1.5 SOL (about US$145) per NFT. Secondary market sales quickly surged, sending the price of the collection soaring and generating US$18.4 million in trading volume.

First For Solana in Terms of a Single Day’s Trading Volume

The stunning Okay Bears performance represents the first time a Solana NFT project has beaten individual Ethereum projects in terms of 24-hour trading volume.

“Solana projects have just as bright a future as projects on other chains,” said Tiffany Huang, Magic Eden’s head of content and marketing, with some understatement.

With a more than passing physical resemblance to Ethereum’s Bored Ape Yacht Club avatars, Okay Bears sport a random array of mix-and-match traits. And like BAYC, the creators of Okay Bears plan to reward holders with future NFT drops, additional perks and benefits.

According to Huang, the platform generated over 380,000 SOL (about US$37.4 million) of secondary trading volume in 24 hours, a record for Solana. Yet Ethereum retains the ascendancy with its recent MoonBirds NFT launch generating more than US$200 million on debut. Earlier this week, a single Moonbirds NFT changed hands for more than US$1 million.

Crypto News DeFi Ethereum Real Estate

ETH Project ‘Teller’ Concludes World’s First DeFi Mortgage

USDC.Homes is a new company that partners with mortgage lenders and brokers to facilitate home loans using cryptocurrencies. This week, the company sold its first home to an Austin, Texas, resident who bought a US$680,000 condo through the Ethereum-based lending protocol Teller.

Forget About Fiat – Buy Your Home With Crypto

Teller calls USDC.Home the “first unsecured DeFi mortgage”, with its hybrid program that combines practices from both the traditional finance and decentralised finance worlds. Borrowers can ask for loans and show their credit score to determine eligibility and can use cryptocurrency staking or other yield-generating activities to pay off the balance:

Thanks to a good credit score, the Austin homebuyer was able to get the loan and while he didn’t put up collateral, he did make a downpayment in USDC. He was able to earn interest on the downpayment by putting his assets to work through staking.

According to Teller, all transactions take place on-chain using Ethereum sidechain Polygon, which leverages a set of mechanisms to make transactions faster and cheaper.

Buying Homes With Crypto – From Dreams to Reality

Buying a home using bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies was a mere dream years ago, but it’s now a solid reality thanks to mainstream adoption of digital assets.

A few months ago Crypto News Australia reported that Milo, a US fintech company, had launched the world’s first Bitcoin mortgage offering, enabling customers to buy real estate in the US by leveraging their stack as collateral:

Bitcoin Crypto News Payments Regulation

Central African Republic Becomes Second Country to Adopt BTC as Legal Tender

The rumours are indeed true – the Central African Republic (CAR) has become the second nation state to adopt bitcoin as legal tender, according to official government sources:

‘Now Our Country is One Step Ahead’

According to a statement from President Faustin Archange Touadera’s office, the National Assembly has passed, and he has signed, a bill establishing a legal and regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies, making bitcoin legal tender alongside the CFA franc:

Official announcement per Minister of Digital Economy

To some the news was surprising but to others less so, as CAR’s finance minister Herve Ndoba told Bloomberg last week:

There’s a common narrative that sub-Saharan African countries are often one step behind when it comes to adapting to new technology. This time, we can actually say that our country is one step ahead.

Herve Ndoba, CAR finance minister

Details Somewhat Murky for Now

Several sources in both traditional and crypto media have managed to verify the announcement on the ground, along with several credible Bitcoiners who make it their mission to establish the facts.

One of those is human rights advocate Alex Gladstein, who noted that the bill had been in the works for the past month “with a lot of debate and criticism from the opposition, but [it] was passed unanimously on April 22”. It is also understood that “some opponents of the bill didn’t show up for the vote, and some plan to challenge it later”.

Another Bitcoiner with her ear to the ground is Anita Posch, a Bitcoin educator on a mission to orange-pill Africa. She took to Twitter saying that the official statement “looked legit”, but that bitcoin wasn’t legal just yet as several compliance measures were required to “complete the process”:

Clear Obstacles Stand in the Way of Adoption

The most obvious challenge is that less than 11 percent of CAR’s population of 4.83 million have access to the internet, suggesting that the CFA franc will remain dominant for now. In fact the United Nations describes it as the second-least developed nation on Earth.

In addition, many in the opposition and civil society continue to believe that Bitcoin is a scam, as noted by Gladstein. He adds, however, that the government’s motivation may be twofold:

  1. it could open new opportunities and provide new economic development; and
  2. due to civil war, bitcoin could make it easier to trade in/out of the CFA franc.

Despite these challenges, Bitcoiners have cheered on the news, suggesting “two down [referring to El Salvador and now CAR], just another 193 to go”.

Crypto News dYdX Market Analysis Secret Terra Trading

Top 3 Coins to Watch Today: LUNA, DYDX, SCRT – April 29 Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at today’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll explain what the coin is, then dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you decide.

1. Terra (LUNA)

Terra LUNA is a blockchain protocol that uses fiat-pegged stablecoins to power price-stable global payments systems. According to its whitepaper, Terra combines the price stability and wide adoption of fiat currencies with the censorship-resistance of Bitcoin, and offers fast and affordable settlements. Terra’s native token, LUNA, is used to stabilise the price of the protocol’s stablecoins. LUNA holders are also able to submit and vote on governance proposals, giving it the functionality of a governance token.

LUNA Price Analysis

At the time of writing, LUNA is ranked the 8th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$88.83. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

LUNA showed significant strength in the face of a mostly bearish altcoin market, rallying over 105% during Q1.

The price is currently retracing from resistance near $116.90, just below the all-time high. Bulls might begin eyeing entries near $85.00, which will soon be near the 18 EMA and between the 61.8% and 78.6% retracement levels of the last leg upward.

A deeper retracement might reach an inefficient zone and the 40 EMA under the last daily swing low, between $82.44 and $79.10. A move below this low suggests a more bearish shift in market structure. If this shift occurs, it could create a short setup to target possible support at the upmove’s accumulation zone, near $74.41.

While the price is retracing, $96.44 offers the closest probable resistance at the yearly open. Just above, near the March monthly open, the consolidation lows near $102.69 are also a reasonable candidate for resistance.

If the price breaks through these resistances, the significant resistance at $108.69 might also break and allow LUNA to set new monthly highs. However, bulls should keep in mind that the overall market is mostly bearish, decreasing the chances of a massive bullish breakout. If the price does break the all-time high and enter discovery, overlapping extensions near $123.40 offer a possible significant target.

2. Dydx (DYDX)

DYDX is a governance token that allows the dYdX community to truly govern the dYdX Layer 2 Protocol. By enabling shared control of the protocol, DYDX allows traders, liquidity providers, and partners of dYdX to work collectively towards an enhanced protocol. DYDX enables a robust ecosystem around governance, rewards, and staking, each designed to drive future growth and decentralisation of dYdX, resulting in a better experience for users.

DYDX Price Analysis

At the time of writing, DYDX is ranked the 165th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$4.50. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

DYDX consolidated between $4.18 and $6.26 with the bulk of the volume concentrated in the lower half of the range. The price does not indicate a clear longer-term direction yet as stop orders build on both sides of the range.

Range traders will likely take profits or sell near $4.92. A stop run and swift rejection above $5.34 could provide a more favorable risk-to-reward entry for bears. An old 4h gap around $5.85 might cap this stop run.

Bulls will likely accumulate more long positions on a run below the relatively equal lows near $4.38. Little exists below the current range to identify precise support levels. However, the area between $4.30 and $4.25 could also give support during a deeper stop run.

If the price does break out decisively to the upside, the swing high at $6.10 provides a reasonable target. The highs and daily resistance levels between $6.27 and $6.40 may provide a second target.

3. Secret (SCRT)

Secret SCRT is the native coin of the Secret Network, a decentralised network for private/secure computation. Nodes on the network (known as secret nodes) can perform generalisable computations over encrypted data, which allows smart contracts (known as secret contracts) to use private and sensitive data as inputs. Our focus is on computational privacy, not just transactional privacy. Developers can build decentralised, privacy-preserving “Secret Apps” on the network. The privacy functionality of the Secret Network is critical for many fields, including decentralised finance, Web3, machine learning, access control, and many more.

SCRT Price Analysis

At the time of writing, SCRT is ranked the 95th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$4.57. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

SCRT‘s 109% rally from its late December lows has retraced 70% and is entering higher-timeframe support.

An area from $4.45 to $4.10, near the low of Q4’s bullish leg and highs of early 2021’s consolidation, could provide some support.

However, relentless selling suggests that the price may continue dropping into a thinly traded area between $3.92 and $3.67, which has confluence with the 78.6% retracement of the previous Q3-Q4 rally.

Any retracement upward might meet resistance near $5.12, which has confluence with the 18 EMA and old resistance.

A stronger push through the probable resistance near $5.34 could reach $6.10, where the price consolidated over an old high. However, this may not happen until the next bullish cycle. 

Close above, a zone beginning near $6.28 may provide some resistance, with more sensitivity near $6.80.
