Theta combines the power of decentralization with one of the most popular internet concepts – video streaming. It enables users to facilitate streams with each other via their bandwidth. In return, Theta rewards users in its TFUEL token.
The primary token – THETA – is representative of the value of the platform. After a strong correction from over $10 in September to a low of nearly $2 in March, THETA, like many other altcoins, is showing strength. It has recently flipped a resistance trendline into support and is currently testing it to establish further upside.
ET CONTRIBUTORSImmediate targets of $4.3 and $4.7 are on the horizon. A flip of the $5.95 resistance level will clearly establish an uptrend, at least in the mid timeframes.
THETA must hold its current levels for these bullish scenarios to play out. Else THETA may return to a narrow triangle converging at the $3 mark and a potential triple bottom at $2.25 before a reversal.
Major levels
Support: $3.6, $3, $2.65, $2.25
Resistance: $4.3, $4.7, $5.95
