SafeMoon price has no chance of going to the moon anytime soon

  • SafeMoon price is shaking off the profit-taking from Monday. 
  • SAFEMOON is trying to break to the upside, but too many factors are pointing to further downside. 
  • A retest of the double bottom at $0.00000259 is set to be complete by the end of this week.

SafeMoon price alongside the top cryptocurrencies has been able to reverse the negative sell-off that happened on Monday. It even entered in further bullish patterns, breaking specific bearish indicators or levels.

SafeMoon price lacks strength

SafeMoon price has been in a similar pattern as Bitcoin and other majors since this past weekend. SafeMoon made a new high, but that was taken down again on profit-taking and is now looking to pair those losses again. 

Nevertheless, the image looks rather grim to the upside for SafeMoon. A close look at the 4-hour chart shows a cluster of significant forces just above it, all in the $0.0000030-to-$0.0000035 region.

The descending trendline is limiting the upside on SafeMoon price as well as the 55 Simple Moving Average (SMA) on the 4-hour chart around $0.0000031.

If buyers could overcome those two short-term caps, the 200 SMA on the 4-hour chart at $0.0000034 would come into play. Both SMAs are also forming a death cross that is still very much in play.

On the flip side, buyers need to step in properly and drive prices beyond this resistance area so SafeMoon price can jump towards $0.000044. But the technical indicators are so strong and meaningful that SafeMoon should instead go for the retest of $0.0000026 and might break further to the downside.
