NEO/USD: Technical picture implies range-bound trading

From the intraday point of view, BTC/USD created a double bottom at $13.70 and managed to recover above $14.00. The next resistance is created by SMA200 1-hour at $14.50. Once it is out of the way, the upside is likely to gain traction with the next focus on $15.00. This barrier is reinforced by SMA50 on 1-hour and 4-hour charts and the upper line of 1-hour Bollinger Band. It is closely followed by the next resistance at $15.30 (SMA100 1-hour and the middle line of 4-hour Bollinger Band).

On the downside, a sustainable move below $13.70, the double bottom spotted on 1-hour chart, NEO/USD may extend the decline towards $13.40 (SMA100 4-hour) and psychological $13.00. If this support is broken, the sell-off may continue towards $12.50 (SMA200 4-hour).

The RSI on intraday charts stays flat in a neutral position, which means that the coin may stay range-bound in the nearest sessions.
