There is also a crucial bullish trend line forming with support near $18.80 on the 4-hours chart of the UNI/USD pair. The trend line is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $16.73 swing low to $20.78 high.
On the upside, the $20.00 level is a strong resistance. If UNI price settles above the $20.00 level, it could surpass the $20.80 and $21.00 levels. In the stated case, it could even rise towards the $22.00 level.
Dips Supported?
If UNI price fails to settle above the $20.00 zone, it could correct substantially. The first major support is near the $18.80 level and the trend line.
A downside break below the trend line support might open the doors for a push towards the $17.50 support. Any more losses may possibly lead the price towards the $15.80 zone (the last breakout zone).
