QNT has resumed a new uptrend after a minor setback. Meanwhile, the July 9 uptrend has shown a candle body testing the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level. The retracement suggests that QNT will rise to the 1.618 Fibonacci Extension level or $112.89. It is above the 75% area of the daily stochastics.

Internet Computer
Internet (ICP) is in an uptrend as the price breaks above the moving average lines. The price of the cryptocurrency has pulled back above the 50-day line SMA and started a new uptrend. If the 50-day line SMA holds, ICP will trend upwards and regain the previous highs of $9 and $14. However, if the bears break below the 50-day line SMA, the altcoin will decline and settle between the moving average lines.
ICP is at level 53 of the Relative Strength Index of period 14, indicating that the cryptocurrency asset is in the uptrend zone and capable of further upward movement. However, ICP is the cryptocurrency with the second best performance this week. It has the following characteristics:

If the current uptrend continues, the altcoin will rise to $0.80 and $1.00. However, the upward movement is doubtful as small indecisive doji candlesticks can be seen. These candlesticks represent delays in the price movement.
The altcoin is at level 53 of the Relative Strength Index of period 14, indicating that the cryptocurrency is in the bullish trend zone and could continue to rise.

If the bears break below the 21-day line SMA, the altcoin will fall and continue its downward correction. The cryptocurrency will regain the previous lows of $52 and $45. However, the market will go back up if the current support holds.
