Tracking the broader market through the morning, DASH slid to a late morning intraday low $67.23, the reversal seeing DASH fall through the first major support level at $67.68 before finding support from the broader market.

A late morning rebound saw DASH move back through to $70 levels by mid-day. An afternoon rally saw DASH break through the first major resistance level at $69.47 and second major resistance level at $70.35 to strike a late afternoon intraday high $71.53 before easing back to $70 levels by the day’s end.

The extended bearish trend remained firmly intact, in spite of Tuesday’s gains that barely made a dent into 2 consecutive weeks in the red, with DASH continuing to fall well short of the 23.6% FIB of $172 following the 15th December new swing lo $56.214.

At the time of writing, DASH was up 0.61% to $71.03, with moves through the early morning seeing DASH recover from an early morning low $70.58 to strike a morning high $71.34 before easing back, the major support and resistance left untested early on.

For the day ahead, a hold onto $71 levels through the morning would support a breakout to $72 to levels to bring the first major resistance level at $72.34 into play before any pullback, $73 levels and the second major resistance level at $74.09 unlikely to be in play barring a broad based crypto rally later in the day.

Failure to hold onto $71 levels could see DASH hit reverse later in the day, with a pullback through the morning low $70.58 bringing sub-$70 levels and the first major support level at $68.05 into play before any recovery.

We would expect DASH to avoid the second major support level at $65.49, with $67 levels likely to be as bad as it will get in the event of a sell-off.
