THORChain (RUNE) Ready For 20% Climb Before Next Correction

The price of cross-chain exchange THORChain(RUNE) has registered a 8.12% gain in the last two days. Incrediblely, the RUNE price continues to be bullish as it races above the rising parallel channels pattern.  A reversal at the support trendline could also spark a bull run, as RUNE price thumps through the resistance trendline.

However, technical analysis indicates that the price correction could be triggered by this specific pattern following a breach of the bottom trendline. The EMAs can be seen at $2.5, showing resistance to the downside. Thorchain’s 24-hour trading volume registered a loss of 44.6% or $291.6 million.

THORChain To Breach Resist Trendline

On June 18, the RUNE/USDT currency pair was able rebound from $1.45, which it had fallen to. Since its low of $1.45, the RUNE price has seen an ATH of $3.04 and a rise of 108% over the last six weeks.

A minor correction was also caused by the huge sell-off that occurred over the weekend. Confluence support was a buffer that pushed RUNE up by 5.66%.

CoinMarketCap currently shows RUNE trading at $2.69. This is a decrease of 1.70%, according to the source. To break the overhead line, however, RUNE should rise by 22% due to the channel pattern.

The best conditions for RUNE may allow it to surpass the resistance line, accelerating the bullish trend. The rising channel pattern is likely to point towards a bearish trend, particularly once RUNE breaks the support level. The RUNE price will likely correct further if it crosses the trendline.

Two RSI peaks indicate a slowdown in bullish perspectives.  However, traders will have better confirmation of a coming correction when divergence increases. It is possible to expect a rise in recovery rates above the resistance line judging by the 50-day and 20-day EMAs.

DeFi Tokens Like RUNE On Revival

The revival is happening for DeFi tokens such as RUNE, SNX and LDO. RUNE recorded an 111.51% jump on August 3. While they are not yet above the redlines, RUNE has seen a notable leap along with other DeFi protocols.

In another news story, THORChain recently flipped the trip switch which will end support for both RUNE BEP-2 and ERC-20-based versions. The IOU tokens are now being swapped for the native RUNE token following THORChain’s mainnet that happened last month. 

In the following 12 months, the value of the old tokens is going to decrease so they will automatically be upgraded to native RUNE. To further decentralize and expand the network, this move was made.
