At press time, ETC was trading at $20.52 and could retest the upper range boundary of $21.77 if the demand kicks in. Well, the CPI data will have an important role to play here.

The upper range boundary of $21.77: Is a retest likely?
מקור: ETC / USDT אויף TradingView
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) overstayed in the overbought zone before it moved sideways. This showed that buying pressure dropped slightly, but bullish momentum was relatively strong.
In addition, the Money Flow Index (MFI) rebounded from the midrange and showed that a significant distribution had taken place.
Therefore, ETC bulls could attempt to retest the overhead resistance at $21.77 and go beyond, primarily if BTC aims at the $20K psychological mark.
However, a break below $19.55 support would invalidate the bullish forecast. Such a move could see bears settle at the 61.8% Fib level of $19.09 or 100-period EMA of $18.76.

At press time, there was an uptick in hashrate that could positively affect ETC price if the rise continues.

On the other hand, ETC’s open interest (OI) rate declined further as the coin moved sideways. It shows more flowed out of the futures market as ETC traders closed or liquidated their positions as ETC traded in a range.
The hidden OI/price divergence could tip ETC for trend reversal. However, BTC’s price action could give investors more clarity on the next movement.
