As Bitcoin (BTC) climbs to the $58,000 mark, the positive sentiment in the crypto market is boosting other cryptocurrencies, including Fantom (FTM). In the last 24 hours, FTM has surged by over 13.4%, climbing from a low of $0.4389 to a high of $0.4963 and tops the gainers list.

Despite this significant increase, FTM is still trading below a crucial resistance level at $0.55. This horizontal resistance has been significant since early 2024.

Additionally, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is nearing the overbought zone at 77, while the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) shows a bullish crossover between the 12-day and 26-day EMAs.

These indicators suggest that a breakout above $0.55 could confirm a sustained upward trend, potentially pushing FTM towards the $1 mark. Such a move would likely trigger further rallies.

However, if FTM were to face resistance and not break through the $0.55 level, it could test the $0.40 support area once again. A rebound from this level, creating a higher low, would indicate strength in the market.

The outcome of this resistance test will be crucial in determining the future direction of FTM’s price. For a detailed long-term forecast, check out the full Fantom (FTM) Price Prediction.
