Polygon (MATIC) Price Faces Crucial Turning Point That Could Trigger 50% Rally, Analyst Says

Polygon (MATIC) is the altcoin in focus this time around as an analyst provides an analysis of the crypto token. Based on this analysis, there is a feeling that things could soon begin to look up for MATIC.

In a video shared on the Cheeky Crypto YouTube Channel, crypto analyst JB noted that MATIC has declined following Bitcoin’s pullback. However, this move is unexpected as he believes that the crypto token’s decline to the particular retracement area sets it up nicely for an upward move. Based on his projection, MATIC could rise to between $0.87 and $1.36.

JB also factored in other things that could suggest that an upward move is imminent. He alluded to the stochastic level, which had initially suggested an overbought condition. However, it has sharply corrected indicating that there could be another push to the upside for MATIC. On the other hand, the crypto analyst was also wary of factors that could spell a move to the downside.

One of them happens to be the volumes that are seen across various cryptocurrencies. JB stated the current volumes aren’t great, and this has weakened the prices of these crypto tokens. This could potentially hinder any projection of an upward move. Another is the possibility of MATIC losing the cross above the 200 EMA, as this suggests that a dump is imminent. 

Earlier in the video, JB had also emphasized the 5-wave pattern that was forming on different timeframes on the MATIC chart. The analyst seemed uncertain about whether or not the fifth wave was just forming. He noted that a push above $94.5 would suggest that the last wave is still to come. There is also the possibility that it could just be an A, B, and C pattern. 

Still analyzing MATIC’s price pattern on the charts, JB mentioned that he was still bullish on the crypto token ahead of the imminent bull market. He had previously mentioned a target of $100 for MATIC in the next bull run, and he is still standing by the projection. In fact, JB noted that a new structure forming on the charts suggests that the crypto token could rise higher than that. 

As part of this prediction, he sees MATIC being a “powerhouse” in the bull run and being one of the standout altcoins. One of the factors that he believes will contribute to MATIC’s dominance is the potential approval of the pending Ethereum Spot ETF applications. He believes that the crypto token could be a huge beneficiary, considering its role in the Ethereum ecosystem. 

At the time of writing, MATIC is trading at around $0.85, down over 1%, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
