Fantom (FTM) had initially reclaimed the $1 level back in March and expectations were that the coin would rise to $2. But that was before the market crash sent prices spiraling, and Fantom lost almost 50% of its value during this time. However, all hope is not lost of for the coin, as one crypto analyst expects a return of the bullish momentum as long as certain conditions are met.

Fantom Searching For Support

Crypto analyst MyCryptoParadise took to TradingView to share their analysis on the Fantom price and how it could see a recovery. After the price fell to $0.56, the altcoin began to look for support, which would serve as a bounce-off point, and the analyst revealed that the altcoin is actually getting closer to this support.

For now, the support lies at $0.5679, which is the point that bulls need to hold to confirm a bullish breakout. Following a rejection at the $0.79 resistance, this point has become even more important to hold, as the FTM price searches for “renewed momentum.”

“Should FTM successfully find support and bounce from this level, it could potentially form a double bottom pattern, with the neckline acting as resistance around the 0.798 mark,” the crypto analyst said, highlighting the importance of finding support.

In the event of a breakout, the analyst expects at least a 100% move from here. The first major level to break it the $1 level, and then after that, the crypto analyst sees the price going as high as $1.2 as long as the trend is confirmed.

FTM Could Break Down Further

On the flip side of this, the crypto analyst also identifies a scenario where the Fantom price could continue to break down. In the event that the altcoin is unable to find support above $0.56 and breaks through it instead, the bloodbath could continue.

The bearish continuation which the analyst sees in a situation like this will send the price below $0.5 eventually. The support for the FTM price then lies at the next Bullish OB area, which the crypto analyst identifies to be around $0.449.

“ Reclaiming the support at 0.568 would be crucial for FTM to maintain its bullish momentum,” the analyst said. “Should FTM fail to bounce even after reaching the Bullish OB area, it would signal a bullish invalidation, indicating a continuation of the bearish trend.”

Presently, the Fantom price is trending above support at $0.6641. However, it is down 3% in the last day with 10% losses in the last week.
