Dash Price Analysis DASH / USD: Repairs In Progress


  • Dash has recovered over twenty percent higher from the summer lows
  • The DASH / USD pair is on course for a breakout above the psychological $100.00 level
  • Technical analysis highlights the $160.00 level as the potential bullish target

Dash is on course to post strong double-digit gains this week as the popular cryptocurrency searches for a potential breakout move above the psychological $100.00 level, which could eventually propel the DASH / USD pair towards the $160.00 level.

The cryptocurrency has been making major technical strides recently, and the DASH / USD pair is currently extending gains towards the $100.00 level. According to the daily time frame, the $100.00 level is an area of technical importance for numerous reasons.

Aside from being a key psychological marker, the $100.00 level is also home to a major long-term trendline, which traders have been using since December 2018. Once clearly above this long-term trendline, the recovery in the DASH / USD pair can really start to gather pace.

The short-term technicals are equally bullish and show that the DASH / USD pair is currently holding above its 200-period moving average on the four-hour time frame for the first time since early July this year. If the DASH / USD pair holds above the $87.00 level, the four-time frame suggests that short-term bulls will remain in full control.

The mentioned time frame also shows that a series of bullish inverted head and shoulders patterns are starting to take shape. The smaller bullish pattern projects the $120.00 level as the near-term target for the cryptocurrency, with the $100.00 the neckline and breakout area.

Once above the $120.00 level, a much larger inverted head and shoulders pattern will start to form, which projects the $160.00 level as the likely upside target, or in percentage terms, a sixty percent gain in value from current trading levels.

From a much longer-term perspective, the DASH / USD pair shows significant amounts of bullish MACD price divergence extending towards the $400.00 level. Should we see a rally occur towards the $160.00 level, it may provide an excellent opportunity to take a longer-term position in the DASH / USD pair, with the cryptocurrency’s longer-term goal in mind.

According to the latest sentiment data from TheTIE.io, the short-term sentiment towards Dash is neutral, at 54.50.00 %, while the overall long-term sentiment towards the cryptocurrency is bearish, at 39.00%.

The daily time frame is currently showing that the DASH / USD pair’s 50-day moving average is the strongest form of medium-term support, which is located around the $90.00 level.


Summary

Dash has extremely strong upside potential over the short-term if bulls can force a sustained breakout above the psychological $100.00 level.

Overall, further upside gains towards the $160.00 level are certainly an achievable and realistic target for the cryptocurrency over the medium-term horizon.
