Again, this looked like the development of a falling wedge pattern on the daily chart. It appeared as a bullish pattern under construction.
Since the bearishness appeared high and derivatives liquidation of longs was high too. There has been a higher chance that the dip could increase towards making strong support from the wedge’s lower border.
In the case of further dip, the supports of $4 and $3.5 could play significant roles. Once breached, the downtrend could extend.
However, on the flip side, if it dips and takes humongous support followed by major bulls’ interest from the wedge’s lower border. The price propulsion could attain a breakout by completing the falling wedge pattern.
