The altcoins are either trapped between or below the moving average lines. The worst performing cryptocurrencies are facing rejection at higher price levels.

Klaytn

The price of Klaytn (KLAY) is down from a high of $0.22. The altcoin was rejected twice at the high of $0.22 during the uptrend on Nov. 23. The altcoin has pulled back above the 21-day SMA, suggesting that the cryptocurrency could be in an uptrend. If the 21-day SMA support holds, KLAY will resume its uptrend. The altcoin will rise and retest or break through the $0.22 level. KLAY will reach a high of $0.28. If the bears fall below the 21-day SMA, selling pressure will resume. The market will fall above the 50-day SMA or the low of $0.15.

Current price: $0.189

Immutable

Immutable (IMX) has reached the predicted price level and retraced above the 21-day (SMA). As the cryptocurrency begins its uptrend, IMX has found support above the 21-day SMA. Price action is being held back by doji candlesticks, which are slowing the uptrend. The upward movement is shaky as the market has reached the overbought territory. The altcoin has also surpassed its historical price from March 18. If the 21-day SMA support is breached, IMX will remain under selling pressure. The altcoin is expected to drop to a low of $0.90. At this point, the cryptocurrency is worth $1.29. The second worst performing cryptocurrency is IMX.

At the time of writing, the altcoin is trading at $1.69. If the 21-day SMA or the 50-day SMA barrier lines are broken, the cryptocurrency will develop a trend.

The altcoin has retreated and found support above the 21-day simple moving average. UNI is currently trading above the 21-day SMA but below the $6.50 resistance line.
