For the day ahead

A hold above $0.08350 levels through the morning would support a recovery later in the day. NEM’s XEM would need to move through to $0.0850 levels to take another run at the first major resistance level.

Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside on the day.

Failure to hold above $0.0835 levels could see NEM’s XEM take a bigger hit on the day. A slide back through the morning low $0.08344 would bring the first major support level at $0.0810 into play.

Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, NEM’s XEM would likely steer clear of the second major support level at $0.0771.

Looking at the Technical Indicators

Major Support Level: $0.0810

Major Resistance Level: $0.0871

23.6% FIB Retracement Level: $0.1359
