Pi Network, SPX6900, Celestia post double-digit losses as altcoin market plummets

  • Pi Network edges lower as momentum wanes, resulting in a double-digit drop over the last 24 hours. 
  • SPX6900 meme coin rolls downhill, risking the current weekly gains. 
  • Celestia, trapped in a falling channel, risks testing the $1.00 psychological support level. 

Pi Network (PI), SPX6900 (SPX) and Celestia (TIA) record double-digit losses in the last 24 hours, extending the pullback from Thursday. The persistent risk-averse condition in the cryptocurrency market, resulting in sudden pullbacks, could be due to the changing dynamics of Middle East tensions, alongside the 90-day pause on tariffs nearing its deadline within two weeks.

Pi Network risks losing weekly gains

Pi Network edges lower by 2% at press time on Friday, extending the 9% drop from the previous day. PI risks losing the 28% gains made earlier this week as it reverses from the $0.66 resistance level. 

A steeper correction could test the weekly low at $0.49, risking the psychological support level of $0.50. 

The momentum indicators lose their bullish tilt: The Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) indicator inches closer to its signal lines as the green histogram bar declines in strength. 

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) reverses to 43, diving below the halfway line, indicating a decrease in bullish momentum.

However, with a potential announcement of Generative AI features on Saturday, a closing above $0.66 could extend the uptrend to the $0.86 level marked by the May 21 high. 

SPX6900 meme coin could break under $1

The SPX6900 meme coin loses ground as bullish momentum fades, resulting in a 12% drop over two days. At the time of writing, SPX extends the pullback by 0.50% on Friday. 

The declining trend targets the 50% Fibonacci retracement level at $1.02, which is drawn between the year-to-date high and low, spanning from $1.80 to $0.25. A clean drop below the 50% level could test the monthly low at $0.91. 

The MACD indicator displays both the MACD and signal lines declining towards the zero line as red histogram bars rise from the same line, indicating a supply surge. Still, the RSI is fluctuating near the halfway line, suggesting uncertainty in trend momentum.

If SPX reclaims the 61.8% Fibonacci level at $1.21, an uptrend to $1.47 marked by the 78.6% level could be possible. 

Celestia fails to break out of the falling channel

Celestia edges higher marginally at press time on Friday after the two days of intense selling, erasing the weekly gains. TIA reversed from a falling channel’s resistance trendline, formed by connecting the dots on May 14, June 11 and June 25.

The support trendline is connected by the lows on May 17, May 31 and June 22. Celestia’s declining trend targets the monthly low of $1.31, while a potential closing below this could test the support trendline close to the $1.00 round figure. 

The MACD indicator fails to signal a clear buy call, as the MACD and signal lines merge and risk reverting to a declining trend. The RSI at 33 floats above the oversold boundary line, suggesting a bearish inclination.

However, a potential close above the $1.68 weekly high will break the overhead trendline, which could extend the trend towards the $2.30 monthly high.
