Edge self-custody wallet integrating RUNE is part of a plan to simplify participation in the decentralized THORChain protocols.
THORChain price outlook amid integration-related hype
Investors can stay profitable by riding the hype of Edge wallet integrating THORChain. After a 15% climb on the day, the cryptocurrency still has some upside potential, indicated by the position of the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 65 as there is still more room north before RUNE is overbought.
The Awesome Oscillators also remain in the positive territory, suggesting the bulls continue to maintain a presence in the RUNE market. Increased buying pressure above current levels, therefore, could see THORChain price break above the upper boundary of the triangle, extending north to test the $6.464 resistance level, where RUNE was rejected between November 17 and 18.
In a bullish case, THORChain price could clear this barricade, extending a neck higher to the $6.679 resistance level, or in a highly bullish case, stretch to test the $7.000 psychological level. Such a move would denote a 17% climb above current levels.

On the other hand, if profit taking begins as traders look to cash in for the 15% gains, THORChain price could pull south, breaking below the support offered by the lower trendline of the triangle at $5.221. A breakdown of this buyer congestion level would expose RUNE to a cliff, potentially testing the 25-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 4.879. Such a move would confirm the invalidation of the bullish thesis.
In the dire case, THORChain price could drop lower, slipping past the 50-day EMA at $3.992 to test the $3.485 support level. This would constitute a 40% descent below current levels.
