The price of MATIC, which powers the leading Layer-2 ecosystem Polygon, has significantly dropped since its peak of $1.22 on March 14. After consolidating between April 14 and June 7, it fell below the lower line of the horizontal channel and has since decreased by 33%.
What’s Happening with MATIC?
An on-chain evaluation of MATIC’s price performance reveals a significant decline in altcoin demand among market participants. This is partly based on readings from the token’s Price-Daily Active Addresses (DAA) Divergence. This data compares an asset’s price movements with changes in the number of daily active addresses. As of the time of writing, MATIC’s Price-DAA data shows a negative value of -35.59%. For context, this data last exceeded zero on October 24, 2023.
When this data returns a value below zero, it indicates a decrease in the number of daily active addresses trading an asset. A value of -35.59% signifies a significant drop in active addresses, which can be a bearish signal for any asset. Reading MATIC’s price decline and negative Price DAA Divergence together indicates a decrease in both the token’s price and network activity on Polygon.
Additionally, MATIC’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) is 21.17, which supports the above position. This indicator measures an asset’s overbought and oversold market conditions and ranges from 0 to 100; values above 70 suggest the asset is overbought and may need a correction, while values below 30 indicate the asset is oversold and may be ready for a recovery. Although MATIC’s RSI data suggests it could be ready for a price increase, the significant bearish trend currently following it may prevent this from happening.
MATIC Chart Analysis
As the bearish trend for the altcoin continues to gain momentum, MATIC’s price decline may persist. According to the Elder-Ray Index, the indicator’s value has been negative since the decline started on June 7. This indicator measures the relationship between the strength of buyers and sellers in the market, and when its value is negative, bear strength dominates the market.
As of the time of writing, MATIC’s Elder-Ray Index value is -0.15. If bears remain in control of the market, they will push the token’s price into a downward trend. It could drop to as low as $0.42, but if investors take advantage of the decline and increased buying pressure, MATIC’s price could rise to $0.49.
