Dash Price Analysis DASH / USD: Sprouting Higher

Dash is consolidating in an increasingly narrow trading range, as the popular cryptocurrency fails to rally despite have impressive technicals across both the lower and higher time frames.

The DASH / USD pair has been trapped in a period of price consolidation since October 27th, after quickly recovering from the $57.00 level. On a monthly basis the cryptocurrency is almost completely flat, trading down around ten percent from its yearly opening price.

Both the four-hour time frame and daily time frame indicate that the DASH / USD pair has solid upside potential if traders starts can rally the cryptocurrency above the $76.50 level.

The four-hour time frame shows that a breakout above the $76.50 level would ignite a bullish inverted head and shoulders pattern that could help the DASH / USD pair soar in value towards the $100.00 level.

According to the size of the pattern, the DASH / USD would add roughly 38% to its value if the bullish breakout occurred. At present, its 50-day moving average is capping upside gains around the $73.00 level.

The daily time frame highlights the $113.00 level as the medium-term upside objective if a breakout finally occurs over the coming days and weeks.

Longer-term rising trendline resistance and the DASH / USD pair’s 200-day moving average are both converging around the $113.00 level, making it the most likely upside target if a rally above the $100.00 level occurs.
