EGLD/USD 12-hour chart

On the 12-hour chart, to invalidate the bullish outlook, bears have to crack the 26-EMA support level at $138, which has been an accurate guide since December 2020. Losing this key level can drive Elrond price down to $118, the 50% Fibonacci Retracement level and as low as $95, at the 38.2% level.
