Ken Chigbo Independent Analyst

The Monero price is seen down over 3.5% on Friday, as the price further consolidates after seeing a strong run of gains over the past few sessions. Pressure to the south continues after the big $300 rejection.

XMR/USD has been on a run for two consecutive weeks of gains, however this week is looking at closing in the red, after struggling to break down strong resistance at the above trend line of the bullish pennant formation.

Technically, given the rejection, XMR/USD could be subject to some further selling pressure, unless momentum kicks back into the bulls for another test of $300. Price action is actually forming another small bullish pennant, within the large pattern seen on the daily time frame.
