Bitcoin and altcoin trader @BillGK_Crypto tweeted a BAT price chart, outlining an ascending support line which the price has been following. In addition, he gave two targets, which are 60 percent and 120 percent above the current price — at 3800 and 5200 satoshis, respectively.

Will the BAT price be successful in reaching the targets? Continue reading below if you want to find out.

Ascending Support Line

The Basic Attention Token price has been following an ascending support line since December 23, 2019.  The price movement has been quite volatile, with several higher and lower highs being created — culminating with a high of 3132 satoshis on February 12. However, the price has always decreased to the support line before beginning the next upward move. It has done this five times until now. Most recently, it created a very long lower wick on February 26, validating both the ascending support line and the 200-day moving average (MA). From here, unless the support breaks down (which seems unlikely), the BAT price is expected to move upwards at the rate predicted by the ascending support line. The shorter-term chart reveals a descending resistance line that creates a symmetrical triangle, which is a neutral pattern. The lack of bullish divergence in the RSI makes us think that the movement inside this triangle will be gradual, rather than impulsive — eventually leading to a breakout. However, the fact that it is extremely oversold makes us confident in the price moving upwards. The triangle is projected to end by the middle of March.

Basic Attention Token Trading Range

The weekly chart reveals the current trading range, which is found between 2250 and 3200 satoshis. The 2250 satoshi area is of crucial importance. It has been acting as support since March 2018 — with the exception of August/September 2019, when the price briefly fell below it, only to reclaim it a short-time afterward. It is quite a bullish development whenever the price falls below a significant support area, only to reclaim it shortly afterward. If the BAT price were to continue moving upwards towards the resistance, it would also cause the weekly RSI to move above 50, confirming that the price is in a bullish trend. This would be confirmed with a breakout above 3200 satoshis. Both the targets are found above this resistance area, so they are considered long-term targets. To conclude, the BAT price is increasing gradually at the rate predicted by an ascending support line. We believe this increase will continue at least until the price reaches the resistance area at 3200 satoshis. A breakout is not ruled out.
