YEREVAN (CoinChapter.com) – Green Metaverse Token (GMT), introduced by Solana-based Web3 lifestyle app STEPN, traded at $3.7 in the New York session on Apr. 19, after adding nearly 60% to its value in the previous 48 hours. Moreover, the token climbed12 rank points month-to-date and knocked on the top-50 door with a market cap of $2.2 billion.

In detail, the price action consolidated around the previous local high of $3.1 and started a new leg up, retesting the said level as support. However, ‘overbought’ risks might rain on GMT’s parade.

The token’s relative strength index (RSI; the purple graph on the chart below) rose to 82. Whenever the momentum indicator climbed above 70, traders might consider the asset ‘overbought’ and pull their punches, withdrawing from the market to book profits.

However, the RSI alone is not enough to draw conclusions, especially when the other trend-based indicator, MACD (histogram at the bottom), looked primed for a bullish continuation.

As CoinChapter previously covered, STEPN hinted at “upcoming partnerships” with various sports companies on Apr. 1. The GMT token responded to the news, pumping three-digit gains. Notably, the latest surge came after the app announced an NFT collaboration with leading apparel company Asics.
