SAND Technical Analysis and Key Levels
According to AMBCrypto's technical analysis, SAND was looking bullish at press time as it broke out of a double-bottom price action pattern. The breakout was confirmed by the close of the daily candle above the neckline.
Based on the recent price performance, if SAND closes a daily candle above $0.264, it could gain 15% to reach the $0.305 level in the coming days.
Additionally, SAND's Relative Strength Index (RSI) stood at 52.30 at press time, indicating a possible upside rally ahead.
Despite SAND's bullish outlook, the 200 exponential moving average (EMA) indicates a bearish trend. When an asset trades below the 200 EMA, traders and investors generally consider it to be in a downtrend and vice versa.
SAND's bullish on-chain metrics
SAND's bullish outlook is further supported by on-chain metrics. According to on-chain analytics firm Coinglass, SAND's long/short ratio at press time was 1.03, indicating bullish market sentiment.
Additionally, its futures open interest rose 5.6% in the last 24 hours and 3.91% in the last four hours.
This suggests increasing trader interest in the SAND token following the breakout of the double-bottom price action pattern.
Main liquidity level
So far, the main liquidation levels are $0.255 on the downside and $0.27 on the upside, with traders over-leveraging these levels, according to Coinglass.
If the market sentiment remains unchanged and the price rises to the $0.27 level, the short position worth about $308,620 will be liquidated.
Conversely, if sentiment changes and the price falls to the $0.255 level, the long position worth about $732,960 will be liquidated.
This liquidation data shows that long bull positions more than double bear short positions.
Combining all these on-chain metrics with technical analysis, it appears that bulls are currently dominating the asset and are likely to support SAND in an upcoming upside rally.
