XLM/USD hits weekly SMA50
On the long-term charts, XLM/USD has reached a critical resistance level created by a psychological $0.0700. This barrier is reinforced by weekly SMA50, which makes it a hard nut to crack for the bulls. XLM/USD has been trading below this MA since the end of November 2018, thus a sustainable move above this area will improve the technical picture dramatically and bring $0.1000 into focus, followed by weekly SMA100 at $0.1192. While these levels may seem like a distant dream, an upward-looking RSI on a weekly chart implies that the bull is ready for a major assault.

Meanwhile. on the intraday charts, the coin is overbought with 1-hour RSI reversed to the downside. It means that the price may retest the support before it resumes the growth. The first important area is created by a combination of 1-hour SMA50 and SMA100 on approach to $0.0630. This barrier is followed by psychological $0.0600. Once it is out of the way, the sell-pff is likely to gain traction with the next focus on 1-hour SMA200 at $0.0580. Bullish trend is intact as long as the price stays above $0.0550 (a confluence of daily SMA100 and SMA200).
