STEPN price swells 50% in just three days — Is GMT in a bull trap? 

YEREVAN (CoinChapter.com) – Green Metaverse Token (GMT), the in-house coin of the move-to-earn app STEPN, caught the Bitcoin-led recovery wave in the previous three days.

The GMT/USD exchange rate jumped over 50% since May 29 and halted on Tuesday, trading at $1.2 ahead of the London session. However, the bullish bells rang hollow as the token eyed another 50% price drop.

Bearish technicals

In detail, the recent price advance seems to be a bull trap, a false recovery signal amid a bear market. As a result, the STEPN token formed a bear flag on the four-hour chart. The formation features two parallel trendlines that enclose the price action and take the value temporarily higher.

But the Bear Flag is a continuation pattern. Thus, it predicts another leg down once GMT exhausts the formation. Moreover, the STEPN token’s expected move would equal the flagpole, i.e., the latest drop preceding the setup. If the bearish scenario pans out, GMT holders could expect another 50% drop in the works to approximately $0.6.

STEPN token met a confluence of resistance on May 31, from the Bear Flag formation’s upper margin and a down-sloping trendline, relevant since May 13. Moreover, the lowering trading volumes reaffirm the bearish expectations, as traders prefer to exit the market.
