Polkadot Rallies above $19 and $20 Resistances, Targets the $23 High

Polkadot (DOT) is trading above the moving averages as the altcoin has risen to a high of $21.48. The cryptocurrency is out of the downward correction if the current bullish momentum above the moving averages continues.

The bulls have broken above the $20 resistance while the altcoin is completing a small retracement. Should the bulls overcome the resistance at $23, a rise to $27 is likely. On the other hand, if Polkadot fails at the high at $23, DOT/USD will fall above the moving averages. However, the market will resume its uptrend if DOT holds above the moving averages. Nevertheless, the altcoin risks another decline if the price falls below the moving averages. The market will continue to fall to the low of $16. DOT/USD is trading at $20.82 at the time of writing.
