$DOT Trades in the Red
$DOT is trading in the red following a week of struggle between buyers and sellers. Polkadot looks to close the week in the red as buyers fail to take control of the week’s session. The altcoin took a knock on Sunday, registering a decline of 0.90% to settle at $4.40. The decline continued Monday as $DOT dropped 4.55% to slip below the 20-day SMA, settling at $4.20. Buyers gained market control on Tuesday, pushing $DOT back above the 20-day SMA to $4.29. Buyers could not hold the session; however, they forced $DOT back below its 20-day SMA and settled it at $4.16.
Intense selling pressure on Wednesday forced $DOT below its support and to a weekly low of $3.98. Strong demand, however, allowed buyers to enter the market, pushing $DOT back above $4 to eventually settle at $4.17.
Wednesday’s marginal increase allowed buyers to push $DOT back above its 20-day SMA on Thursday to register a 2.16% increase.
$DOT Attempts to Move Above $4.50
