Chart of the day: Notcoin (NOT)
NOT/USDT daily chart
Notcoin (NOT) is in a downward trend. At the time of writing, the token erased 4.76% of its value on the day and is likely to extend its decline further. There is a Fair Value Gap (FVG) between $0.00554 and $0.00750 on the NOT/USDT daily chart, which offers support for NOT’s price.
The midpoint of the FVG is $0.00652. There is a high likelihood that NOT dips to this level to collect liquidity before attempting a recovery. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator flashes green histogram bars above the neutral line, supporting an underlying positive momentum in the NOT price trend.
NOT could attempt a recovery to $0.00847, the August 23 high.
