Quant [QNT] whales are selling, but traders needn’t be sad
Quant [QNT], the multi-purpose cryptocurrency designed to function as a key to access the Quant Network suite of applications, led other crypto assets with the most gains last week. According to data from CoinMarketCap, the price of the #33 largest cryptocurrency rallied by 23% in the past seven days.
As earlier reported, the recent rally in the price per QNT can be attributed to the surge in whale accumulation and growth in its social activity.
Interestingly, the whales responsible for this price growth held between 100 to 1,000 QNT tokens at press time. While they have ramped up holdings in the last week, bigger whales that held 1,000 to 10,000 QNT tokens took to selling.

Caution is advised
It is necessary to point out the fact that a correction typically follows the current position marked by QNT’s RSI. Should the bulls fail to sustain the buying pressure, the bears would take over the market and initiate a price decline.
Furthermore, price movements on a daily chart revealed that QNT had formed a rising wedge. A downward breakout usually follows this; hence, a drawdown in the asset’s price should be expected.
