ApeCoin (APE) testing support levels

ApeCoin (APE), the NFT governance token of the famous apes, continues its recovery, but is now grappling with early difficulties.

“You shall not pass,” shouted Gandalf, the wizard of Tolkienian memory to the Barlog of Moria, and so seems to be doing the $6.40 resistance to ApeCoin.

ApeCoin in the past month has found an excellent performance recovering 61% and bringing the token price to $5.74.

Even in this first week of the shortest month of the year, APE (ApeCoin) continues the positive trend.

ApeCoin (APE): the stalling of resistance levels

The first upside resistance is set at $6.40 and APE is trying to make it its own but the task seems to be more difficult than expected.

APE has tried to attack support at least three times but has failed to break through as investors hope.

The daily shows laterality that does not bode well for the token’s near future, but as of today analysts are still optimistic.

The price of ApeCoin (APE) is up 141% when taking the November 2022 low as the short-term bottom.

Green candles do not seem to be able to break above the fateful $6.40, and at the moment the target area remains between $5.50 and $6.00.

$6.40 is only the first resistance that the token will encounter in its rise, just above that we find the $7.89 resistance that will be crucial for a bull run of APE.

Wanting to look at the short term, there are signs of weakness coming from the negative setup of some data and that facilitated APE’s slowdown.

The same $5.40 was a support that ApeCoin reached without too much trouble, however, as of today we cannot say the same for supports above this threshold.

If things do not go according to plan and strength is lost, on the downside there are other areas to keep an eye on.

The first area that acts as support and that we need to monitor is the $4.80 area while just below that we find the $4.50 area.

If APE returns to these supports, at least for the time being, investors’ dreams of recovery may fade.
