Top 3 Coins to Watch Today: HBAR, CRV, CHR – July 22 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. Hedera (HBAR)

Hedera Hashgraph HBAR is a public network that allows individuals and businesses to create powerful decentralised applications (DApps). It is designed to be a fairer, more efficient system that eliminates some of the limitations older blockchain-based platforms face, such as slow performance and instability. The HBAR token has a dual role within the Hedera public network.

HBAR Price Analysis

At the time of writing, HBAR is ranked the 38th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.07122. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

HBAR‘s 60% Q1 run retraced almost to its origin, narrowly missing probable support near $0.5980 before bears swatted down the bounce near resistance around $0.07689.

With the daily gap between $0.06312 and $0.06054 almost filled in a single wick, the price may not need to revisit areas below this level. However, the safer entry is still in probable support between $0.05923 and $0.05573, which would also sweep the lows of last week’s bounce.

The relatively equal highs near $0.07824 provide a likely first target on lower timeframes. However, the resistance beginning at $0.08215 may initially suppress a further move up.

A clean break through this resistance will need to contend with the next resistance near $0.08692, under the last swing high. This swing high at $0.08950 gives a reasonable take-profit area before a possible move to the 1.0 extension near $0.09546.

2. Curve DAO Token (CRV)

Curve CRV is a decentralised exchange for stablecoins that uses an automated market maker (AMM) to manage liquidity. Curve has gained considerable attention by following its remit as an AMM specifically for stablecoin trading. The launch of the DAO and CRV token brought in further profitability, given CRV’s use for governance, as it is awarded to users based on liquidity commitment and length of ownership. The explosion in DeFi trading has ensured Curve’s longevity, with AMMs turning over huge amounts of liquidity and associated user profits.

CRV Price Analysis

At the time of writing, CRV is ranked the 63rd cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$1.36. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

This month, traders enjoyed 28% gains at CRV‘s peak before the price confirmed stiff resistance beginning at $1.40.

The 4-Hour chart shows that support may be forming between $1.25 and $1.15, near the weekly open. Aggressive bulls could enter in this area, although safer entries may be found much further below near $1.12 and $1.02 after a sweep of the current consolidation’s swing lows.

The last swing high near $1.50 provides a likely first target if the price does bounce from this region. Beyond this swing high, the 1.0 extension near $1.60 and the 2.0 extension near $1.75 and $1.83 may provide the next major targets.

3. Chromia (CHR)

Chromia CHR is an open-source public blockchain conceived by Swedish company Chromaway AB. The Chroma token CHR was launched in May 2019. The technology behind the Chromia blockchain is adapted from an earlier technology called ‘Postchain’, a solution provided by Chromaway AB for enterprise clients. Chromia is a standalone Layer-1 blockchain and EVM compatible Layer-2 enhancement for Binance Smart Chain and Ethereum. It is designed to enhance existing dApps and allow for the creation of next-generation dApps by providing scalability, improved data handling, and customisable fee structures.

CHR Price Analysis

At the time of writing, CHR is ranked the 178th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.2143. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

CHR‘s chart paints a different picture than those of many other altcoins, with the Q2 high leading to a massive range before setting a low near $0.1544 in June.

The beginning of July makes immediate bids questionable. However, the price may be finding support near $0.1962 and possibly near $0.1721. Since the price swept the impulse’s high at $0.2459, bulls might be waiting to enter near the swing low and gap near $0.1645, or slightly lower near $0.1598.

Little resistance lies overhead, although there may be some between $0.2573 and approximately $0.2622, just above the current price. A sweep and rejection of the high near $0.3057 would make most areas of possible support highly suspect and could mark the end of the bullish trend.

Top 3 Coins to Watch Today: HBAR, CRO, ENJ – July 7 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. Hedera (HBAR)

The HBAR token has a dual role within the Hedera public network.

HBAR Price Analysis

At the time of writing, HBAR is ranked the 38th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.06191. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

HBAR‘s 55% Q1 run retraced almost to its origin, narrowly missing probable support near $0.6295 before bears swatted down the bounce near resistance around $0.07589.

With the daily gap between $0.05912 and $0.05750 almost filled in a single wick, the price may not need to revisit areas below this level. However, the safer entry is still in probable support between $0.05523 and $0.05100, which would also sweep the lows of last week’s bounce.

The relatively equal highs near $0.06954 provide a likely first target on lower timeframes. However, the resistance beginning at $0.07315 may initially suppress a further move up.

A clean break through this resistance will need to contend with the next resistance near $0.07692, under the last swing high. This swing high at $0.07950 gives a reasonable take-profit area before a possible move to the 1.0 extension near $0.08256.

2. Crypto Coin (CRO)

Crypto.com coin CRO is the native cryptocurrency token of Crypto.com Chain, a decentralised, open-source blockchain developed by the Crypto.com payment, trading and financial services company. Crypto.com Chain is one of the products in Crypto.com’s lineup of solutions designed to accelerate the global adoption of cryptocurrencies as a means of increasing personal control over money, safeguarding user data, and protecting users’ identities. The CRO blockchain serves primarily as a vehicle that powers the Crypto.com Pay mobile payments app.

CRO Price Analysis

At the time of writing, CRO is ranked the 22nd cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.1174. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

CRO has been trading sideways after Q1, reaching nearly 35% percent within a few weeks as it blasted through its old monthly highs.

This fast move left little compelling higher-timeframe support near the current price. A level near $0.1022, which has confluence with the 8 EMA and 127% extension of H2 2021’s swing, could provide support.

Further below, near $0.09231, 2021’s previous monthly high could also provide some support on a retest. The last consolidation before the breakout, near December’s open, might give the most substantial support. However, this would require significant retracement from the current price point.

While next targets are impossible to predict, extensions from Q1 2022’s move suggest that the 40% extension, near $0.1475, could provide some resistance. Above this level, the 48% extension near $0.1648 could also trigger bulls to take profits.

3. Enjin Coin (ENJ)

Enjin Coin ENJ is a project of Enjin, a company that provides an ecosystem of interconnected, blockchain-based gaming products. Enjin’s flagship offering is the Enjin Network, a social gaming platform through which users can create websites and clans, chat, and host virtual item stores. Enjin Coin is a digital store of value used to back the value of blockchain assets such as non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

ENJ Price Analysis

At the time of writing, ENJ is ranked the 75th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.5379. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

ENJ spent Q2 ranging between 30% over and 23% below. The price is currently consolidating between adjacent resistance and support at $0.6045 with no clear higher-timeframe trend. A strong move over the monthly open could signal a run to resistance beginning near $0.6495. 

This move would likely target the swing high at $0.6912 and relatively equal highs near $0.7249. A sustained bullish trend could reach up to the monthly high near $0.7532.

Bulls may see a sweep of the relatively equal lows near $0.5142 as a chance to buy at a discount. If this level fails to hold, the next significant area for the price to find buyers is likely near the consolidation around $0.4835 and $0.4130.

Crypto News Gala Hedera Market Analysis Polygon Trading

Top 3 Coins to Watch Today: MATIC, HBAR, GALA – April 28 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. Polygon (MATIC)

Polygon MATIC is the first well-structured, easy-to-use platform for Ethereum scaling and infrastructure development. Its core component is Polygon SDK, a modular, flexible framework that supports building multiple types of applications. The MATIC token will continue to exist and will play an increasingly important role in securing the system and enabling governance.

MATIC Price Analysis

At the time of writing, MATIC is ranked the 17th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$1.26. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

Since its Q1 highs, MATIC has been in a steady bearish trend – retracing nearly 25% by mid-April. The price found support near $1.20, at the 50.6% retracement level.

Last week’s sharp impulse up might have marked the start of a new bullish swing. If so, higher timeframes suggest that $1.39 near the 61.8% retracement, and the 9, 18 and 40 EMAs, may see interest from bulls. The price could reach lower, near $1.20, and still find support.

Currently, the price is contesting a region between $1.19 and $1.35. Closes over this level could confirm it as new support, leading to a move higher.

However, bulls are contending with probable resistance near $1.44, while $1.53 is also likely to be sensitive with the nearest support and resistance this close together.

2. Hedera (HBAR)

Hedera Hashgraph HBAR is a public network that allows individuals and businesses to create powerful decentralised applications (DApps). It is designed to be a fairer, more efficient system that eliminates some of the limitations older blockchain-based platforms face, such as slow performance and instability. The HBAR token has a dual role within the Hedera public network.

HBAR Price Analysis

At the time of writing, HBAR is ranked the 36th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.1691. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

HBAR‘s 50% Q1 run retraced almost to its origin, narrowly missing probable support near $0.1695 before bears swatted down the bounce near resistance around $0.1989.

With the daily gap between $0.1812 and $0.1750 almost filled in a single wick, the price may not need to revisit areas below this level. However, the safer entry is still in probable support between $0.1545 and $0.1500, which would also sweep the lows of last week’s bounce.

The relatively equal highs near $0.2256 provide a likely first target on lower timeframes. However, the resistance beginning at $0.2435 may initially suppress a further move up.

A clean break through this resistance will need to contend with the next resistance near $0.2692, under the last swing high. This swing high at $0.2770 gives a reasonable take-profit area before a possible move to the 1.0 extension near $0.2956.

3. Gala (GALA)

GALA aims to take the gaming industry in a different direction by giving players back control over their games. Gala Games’ mission is to make “blockchain games you’ll actually want to play”. The project wants to change the fact that players can spend hundreds of dollars on in-game assets and countless hours playing the game, all of which could be taken away from them with the click of a button. It plans to reintroduce creative thinking into games by giving players control of the games and in-game assets with the help of blockchain technology.

GALA Price Analysis

At the time of writing, GALA is ranked the 74th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.1688. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

After setting a low last week, GALA turned into a recovery trend to make the new monthly highs.

The following 60% plummet found support near $0.1679, sweeping under the 40 EMA into the 58.8% retracement level before bouncing to resistance beginning at $0.1930.

This area could continue to provide resistance, possibly causing a retracement to the 9 EMA and 18 EMA near $0.2112, where aggressive bulls might begin bidding. The level near $0.2350, which has confluence with the 40 EMA, may see more interest from bulls loading up for an attempt on probable resistance beginning near $0.2685. 

However, if Bitcoin continues its sideways trend, much lower prices could be seen. The old support near $0.1580 could provide at least a short-term bounce. If this level fails, the old highs near $0.1435 might also give support and see the start of a new bullish cycle after retesting these support levels.

Australia Banking Crypto News DeFi Hedera

ANZ Bank Exploring Hedera DeFi Services For Its 8.5 Million Customers

Australia and New Zealand Banking Group (ANZ), one of Australia’s ‘Big Four’ banks, is tapping into the growing demand for decentralised finance (DeFi) via the Hedera Hashgraph testnet.

Speaking as a member of an Australian Blockchain Week panel on DeFi, ANZ’s portfolio lead Nigel Dobson said his bank was exploring how best to offer DeFi services to its 8.5 million customers.

According to Dobson, ANZ was taking a “blockchain agnostic” approach and had already experimented with minting, transacting and burning tokens on the Hedera Hashgraph testnet.

All Part of ANZ’s Sustainability Plan

With Bitcoin and Ethereum often criticised for their high carbon emissions, Hedera Hashgraph’s lower-carbon imprint fits with ANZ’s stated goals to be a more ecologically responsible bank:

With Hashgraph able to run Solidity smart contracts, existing smart contracts and applications on Ethereum could be ported over to Hashgraph to the advantage of a potential DeFi ecosystem.

ANZ’s Targets to 2025

On the subject of sustainability, ANZ has already set targets to:

  • fund and facilitate at least A$50 billion by 2025 towards sustainable solutions for its customers;
  • engage with 100 of its largest emitting business customers to encourage them to strengthen their carbon transition plans and enhance their efforts to protect biodiversity by the end of 2024;
  • develop an enhanced climate risk management framework that strengthens ANZ’s governance and is responsive to climate change, by the end of 2022; and
  • achieve ANZ’s 2021-2025 suite of environmental footprint targets.

Set the Course for DeFi

Last November, Dobson described competitor CommBank’s pacesetting move into the Australian crypto space as “bold”, suggesting it was just the start of a major shift in the financial system and something traditional finance would need to embrace or adapt to.

“We are moving to a more decentralised system that can generate new outcomes and business models that can’t be ignored,” Dobson said at the time. “The power of decentralised networks transcends all companies – you just need to choose whether to be part of it or ignore it … I think we have a much stronger bias to participate than ignore.”
