Tezos Price Analysis: XTZ/USD loses 2% in a matter of minutes, tests $3.00
- XTZ/USD extends the decline after a sharp growth on Thursday.
- The coin tests critical support created by 200-hour SMA at $3.00.
Tezos (XTZ) hit the intraday high at $3.23 and retreated to the psychological of $3.00. The coin has lost over 2% in a matter of minutes, but the bullish momentum slowed down on approach to the strong support reinforced by 200-hour SMA. Once it is broken, the previous channel support at $2.90 will come into focus. The next critical barrier is created by a combination of 50-day and 100-day SMA at $2.70. This area may slow down the bears and create a pre-condition for another bullish wave.
