MATIC Price Prediction: Polygon is primed for a 12% upswing

  • MATIC price broke out of a descending parallel channel on the 1-hour chart.
  • The digital asset targets $0.44 in the near future after holding key support level.
  • Bears must push MATIC below $0.38 to invalidate the bullish outlook.

MATIC price had a major 23% breakout in the past 24 hours from a key pattern targeting higher highs at $0.44. There seems to be weak resistance ahead for Polygon as bulls have conquered several key resistance points.

On the other hand, if bears want to invalidate the bullish outlook, they will need to push MATIC price below $0.385, reclaiming the 100-SMA and the 50-SMA levels. This would drive Polygon down to $0.35 in the short-term and as low as $0.315.
