Chiliz price looking for shelter, but CHZ pattern projects a new correction low

  • Chiliz price frustrates bulls as head-and-shoulders bottom fails to materialize.
  • CHZ shaping a symmetrical triangle pattern on the 1-hour chart.
  • IOMAP data has bulls staring at a wall of extraordinary resistance.

At the time of writing, CHZ is nearing the completion of a symmetrical triangle pattern on the intra-day chart, indicating that the digital token is primed to resume the decline.

Chiliz price needs time to bottom, forcing speculators to practice patience

Today’s Intotheblock In/Out of the Money Around Price data points to noteworthy resistance extending from $0.422 to $0.472 with 90.87% of the addresses out of the money and only 8.98% in the money.

Within the blink of an eye, CHZ fell 32% in overnight trading, smashing the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the February-March advance and putting it on pace to test the 100-day simple moving average (SMA) before a wave of buying moved through the cryptocurrency market.

A symmetrical triangle pattern quietly forms on the 1-hour chart with a measured move target of 26% from the triangle breakdown, equaling a price target of $0.297. Before reaching the target, CHZ will need to tackle the 61.8% retracement, which is just below the triangle’s breakdown at $0.392. Next up is the April 7 low at $0.365, followed by the overnight low at $0.313.

If selling accelerates, CHZ could hit the 100-day SMA at $0.260 and even the 78.6% retracement at $0.233.

The symmetrical triangle could resolve to the upside and gain price traction, putting it on a collision course with solid resistance between $0.441 and $0.451. If bulls successfully maintain the rebound, they can look forward to resistance at the 50-day SMA at $0.485.
