Theta / USD Short-term price analysis

 

Theta has turned bullish over the short-term, following a strong upside breakout above the cryptocurrencies December 2018 trading high.

The THETA / USD pair has continued to soar since breaking the December trading high, with the cryptocurrency now approaching strong technical resistance from the June 18th swing-high and also the July 26th trading high.

Key technical support to the downside is currently located at the cryptocurrencies 20-period moving average, with technical indicators on the four-hour time frame starting to appear overstretched.
