Polkadot Price Analysis
The DOT is trading at around $6.64, down about 6% over the past 24 hours and up just 4% over the past week. The token has been forming a downtrend line since a reversal negative on Feb. 19 when the DOT/USD pair started near his 30-day high of $7.74.
A technical breakdown from the resistance line of the ascending channel puts the DOT in free fall risk now, with the demand zone at $6.90 and $6.71 on the 4-hour chart. If the bulls fail to sustain the area around $6.35, the price is likely to plummet to the main support line at $6.00.

The price has also broken below the 50-day exponential moving average (EMA), which is currently at the immediate resistance line. The DOT is just off his 200-day EMA as seen on the 4-hour chart.
A breakdown above this line could confirm a bearish reversal as suggested by the sloping Relative Strength Index (RSI).
DOT is also in oversold territory. daily chart, currently 50 EMA offers the main support line at around $6.35. However, the rebounding of the rising channel from the lower trendline suggests that the bulls may still push the DOT higher.
Whether this will be during the ETHDenver summit or beyond will likely depend on the overall market outlook, especially the price of Bitcoin over the next few days.
