NEXO

Nexo is ranked 100 according to market capitalization. The coin is alternating with a few others due to fluctuations in their capitalization. But this coin has a lot going for it: the reason for this review that lays emphasis on its price action.

Before we continue, we need to look at the background of the project to determine how suitable and viable it is, since we are aware that the utility of a token is the principal reason for its demand.

Nexo loans are instant and backed by a smart contract built on the Ethereum network and backed by an Oracle program. Owners of the NEXO token can also deposit them to be used in lending, enabling the owners to earn a profit from Nexo.

NEXO Market Trend And Price Analysis

The One-Day chart as seen on October 2 shows NEXO forming a head and shoulder pattern, so we took a look at the 7-Day and One-Month charts. The latter shows that the coin is in a downtrend, but this chart is not enough for us to understand what is happening with NEXO. So we shall do an in depth analysis to know the trend and price action.

10-Day, 20-Day and 50-Day Moving Averages for NEXO

The 10-Day Moving Average shows that NEXO is in an uptrend, while the 20-Day MA shows a reversal from a downtrend, but the 50-Day moving average actually shows a downtrend. Since this is a reactive indicator, we can conclude based on the short-term period that the price of NEXO is in an uptrend. However, we need to understand the strength of this trend.
