In the previous report, it was said, for the past week our assumption had been: as the first week of October 2008 on the financial markets, crypto markets were extremely volatile, full of abrupt turnarounds, with up to 30 percent rebounds and further falls. Looking at the chart NWST1100 above we can see, the price was rising to 10-days EMA (more than 30%) then it has pulled back. PPO and PPO histogram bars changed the slope, they are sloping up.
Outlook for this week
Looking ahead, the indicators give us the following signals: at the top, we can see momentum indicators, RSI is 34, PPO and PPO histogram bars could continue sloping positively in the next few days. The Breadth indicators could flatten out. This set up is the basis for my opinion: the wide sideways trend is more likely, the volatility still could be high. However, the cause of the bear trend (coronavirus) will not be eliminated, so a breakthrough to 600 points is unlikely, only a spike of 20% up or down is possible.
