The latest bullish rally looked to reverse LUNC’s extended bearish market structure. The previous rally on 19 August quickly caved to the selling pressure, with price declining to the $0.000055 price zone.

Plotting the Fibonacci retracement levels from the recent high on 17 July to the recent low on 17 August showed key price levels for consideration.

With the recent pump taking LUNC above the 23.6% Fib level, bulls could look to build on by targeting the $0.0000695 price level (38.2% Fib level). However, if bears push price below the 23.6% Fib level again, then Luna Classic could settle into a range between $0.0000524 and $0.00006296.

In the meantime, buyers were encouraged by the Relative Strength Index’s (RSI) reading of 61 which signaled strong buying pressure. Similarly, the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) was positive, reflecting decent capital inflows.
