Uniswap Wins Securities Lawsuit, Positive Hope For Investors?

Yesterday, the Southern District Court of New York (SDNY) dismissed a class action lawsuit against Uniswap (UNI), a leading decentralized exchange. Uniswap was dragged into the lawsuit as some third party misused the protocols by listing some scam tokens.

The whole case started when a North Carolina investor sued Uniswap for selling unregistered securities and not registering as an exchange or broker-dealer. She lost $10,000 buying fake tokens like BoomBaby, Rocket Bunny, Matrix Samurai, etc.

However, Uniswap (UNI) is a decentralized protocol that allows automated and open trading of DeFi tokens. It is an AMM that launched in 2018 and became popular in 2020 due to the DeFi boom. Uniswap improves trading efficiency compared to traditional exchanges.

Uniswap Price Prediction Using Price Action Strategy

However, the news did not impact much on the price of Uniswap as it remained steady and consolidated near $4 to $5.

Uniswap price has been in a declining trend since July 2022. The price is declining forming several lower lows and lower highs. The daily chart shows that the price is trading in a channel pattern with sellers dominating at the upper trendline of the channel pattern and buyers pushing the prices up from the lower trendline.

The short-term outlook of the price trend states that the price may remain bearish and keep declining with some small positive spikes until the price maintains the channel.

However, the breakout of the channel may give some hope for buyers to get into the game. However, it requires the price to sustain at the lower levels and halt the ongoing trend to make a trend change.

Also, the volume analysis shows that the volume received is less than the average volume indicating the bearishness in the market. The UNI token has received a $72.74 Million volume in the past 24 hours which is nearly 27.50% less than the past day.

UNI Price Forecast from Indicators’ point of view

As per the EMA analysis, the UNI price is trading below the 50 and 200 EMA indicating bearishness on the daily charts.

RSI has entered the oversold region indicating bearishness in the market at the moment. MACD lines have made a bearish crossover. Also, Histogram bars are being formed below the mean line with decreasing height indicating the price may surge for a pullback over the daily chart.
