If the bulls can push the UNI's closing price above $36, then the bullish momentum may prompt UNI to reach a new all-time high of $45.
The transaction price of UNI/USD is much higher than the Exponential Moving Average ribbon and the moving average lines are beginning to bend upwards. Stochastic RSI is over the median number of 50, which is the bullish side of the oscillator.
After a long time of bonding, MACD index began to slope upward, forming a bullish crossover. This indicates that the bulls are currently dominating the market.
If a large number of sell orders are triggered, then UNI/USD will drop and test the $32.50 support level. However, this level of support is not strong enough.UNI/USD will more likely plummet further and test the 20 day-Exponential Moving Average of $30.90. If the bulls fail to defend the $30.90 support level, then UNI's bullish outlook will disappear.
