THETA daily chart

The video delivery network consolidated for the next five days after complying with Bitcoin’s recovery wave and gaining whapping 90 percent (July 21-25). However, the cryptocurrency’s uptrend prospects looked sour even after the network launched the 3.1.0 version. The Metamask announcement, on the other hand, did the trick.

As a result, there’s a golden cross underway on the daily chart between the 20-day exponential moving average (EMA-20) and the 50-day simple moving average (SMA-50). In detail, the formation occurs when a short-term MA crosses above a long-term MA due to bullish price action.

The golden cross could strengthen the bullish momentum. If the price action slips south, there are several support/resistance lines to cushion the fall. The lines at $6.29 and $5.60 could assist the cryptocurrency in case of a decline. Another support bar stands at $4.10-4.44.
