How to Buy NEO

NEO Price Support

NEO tumbled by 9.23% on Monday, following on from last week’s 2.3% fall, to end the day at $16.33.

A continuation of Sunday’s late recovery spilled into the early hours of Monday, with NEO hitting an early morning intraday high $18.37 to come up against the day’s first major resistance level at $18.38 before hitting the brakes.

Negative sentiment from across the broader market weighed, with NEO sliding through the day’s first major support level at $17.46 and second major support level at $16.89 to a late in the day intraday low $16.18 before steadying.

Following the previous week’s loss and Monday’s sell-off, NEO’s extended bearish trend, formed at the end of April’s swing hi $94.65, remained firmly intact, with NEO needing to break through the 23.6% FIB Retracement Level of $33 and take a run at the 38.2% FIB Retracement Level of $45 to begin a bearish trend reversal, price targets being some way off.

At the time of writing, NEO was 0.08% to 16.57, with NEO recovering from an early morning intraday low $16.29 to a morning high $16.7 before steadying, the early moves seeing the day’s major support and resistance levels left untested.

For the day ahead, a move back through the morning high $16.7 to $17 levels would support a run at the day’s first major resistance level at $17.74, supporting a partial recovery of Monday’s losses, with $18 levels in play should the broader market recover from early losses and begin to reverse Monday’s sell-off, momentum capable of pulling NEO back through to $18 levels with ease.

Failure to move through to $17 levels could see NEO move back into the red later in the day, with a fall through the morning low $16.28 bringing sub-$16 levels and the day’s first major support level at $15.55 into play.

For the crypto bulls, the recovery from early losses will provide some hope of a rebound from Monday’s sell-off, though with the stakes now having been raised, we can expect profit taking to peg back any rallies near-term.
