Yearn.finance technical analysis

YFI is dancing above $30,000, but it is essential to note the volatility is extremely high. In other words, the price could easily swing up to $40,000 just as fast as it can swing down to $20,000.

However, the 4-hour chart highlights the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of the last swing high to $40,000 and a swing low to $11,845 as the initial support. From a technical perspective, YFI/USD is in a bullish phase.
