TRON’s technical picture 

The initial support is created by $0.0162. This barrier si created by SMA200 (Simple Moving Average) on the four-hour chart. Once it is out of the way, the sell-off is likely to gain traction with the next focus on $0.0158 guarded by a combination of SMA50 (Simple Moving Average) four-hour and SMA200 one-hour. This support is closely followed by $0.0156 ( SMA100 four-hour and the middle line of Bollinger Band on a daily chart). 

On the upside, we will need to see a move above $0.0170-$0.0171 area to mitigate the immediate bearish pressure. However, for a sustainable recovery, TRX/USD needs to clear $0.0176 (the middle line of one-hour Bollinger Band) and $0.0177 (SMA50 daily). This development will negate the short-term bearish scenarion and allow for an extended recovery towards $0.0180 and to Wednesday’s high at $0.0186.
