Ocean Protocol price points north

Ocean Protocol price is currently auctioning at $0.472, as the bulls are maintaining support above both the 8-day exponential moving average and the 21-day simple moving average. The indicators suggest that e 2x rally that started on January 1 is still intact.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) compounds the optimistic sentiment as it shows a bullish divergence between the recent swing lows at $0.40 that occurred on February 13 and February 17's low at $0.439. The bullish divergence suggests that there may be further upside potential for Ocean Protocol's price in the short term

Considering these factors, a move to the upside stands a fair chance of occurring. A conservative target bullish would be the recently established year-to-date high at $0.583. Such a move would result in a 20% increase from OCEAN's current market value.
