BNB Price Regains Traction


In the past few days, BNB outperformed Ethereum and Bitcoin. It remained stable above $525 and started another increase above the $535 resistance zone.


There was a move above the $542 and $545 resistance levels. The price climbed above the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $562 swing high to the $527 low. However, the bears are now active near the $550 resistance zone.


The price is now trading below $550 and the 100-hourly simple moving average. If there is a fresh increase, the price could face resistance near the $550 level. There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance at $550 on the hourly chart of the BNB/USD pair. The trend line is close to the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $562 swing high to the $527 low.

BNB Price

The next resistance sits near the $558 level. A clear move above the $558 zone could send the price higher. In the stated case, BNB price could test $565. A close above the $565 resistance might set the pace for a larger move toward the $580 resistance. Any more gains might call for a test of the $592 level in the near term.


Are Dips Supported?


If BNB fails to clear the $550 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $544 level. The next major support is near the $540 level.


The main support sits at $535. If there is a downside break below the $535 support, the price could drop toward the $520 support. Any more losses could initiate a larger decline toward the $505 level.
