On the 12-hour chart, the most important support level is the 26-EMA which is located at $2.25. Tezos price is quickly dropping towards it and bulls need to defend it at all costs to resume the uptrend and aim for a higher high above $2.8.

However, on the daily chart, this rejection is really significant as it seems Tezos has potentially established a triple top at $2.74. This can be a deadly pattern with the ability to push Tezos price down to $2 in the short-term.
