Binance coin [BNB] regained bullish momentum after falling to multi-year lows in mid-June, testing its 11-month trendline support (previous resistance) (white, dashed).
Until recently, BNB struggled to enter a high volatility phase, following in the footsteps of the king coin and most altcoins. With buyers inducing a steep uptrend above the 20/50/200 EMA over the last two days, bulls would strive to maintain their advantage in the coming sessions. BNB was trading at $320.1 at the time of publication.
BNB witnessed a bullish volatile move

While the alt undertook a sideways track for nearly two months, the buyers finally found a reliable break above the $296 zone. The bull run before this break stemmed from a bullish hammer at the $268 baseline in late October.
The resulting reversal led to an over 20% growth until the buyers faced barriers in the $329 zone.
Moreover, during the recent gains, the 20 EMA (red) jumped above the 50 EMA (cyan) to reveal an increased bullish vigor. Should the immediate ceiling propel a firm reversal and the current candlestick close as red, BNB could witness an evening star pattern on its daily chart.
The resulting outcome would expose the alt to a potential test of the $316 mark. A close below this mark can induce further losses.
Alternatively, a likely bounce-back from this support can set the stage for a reversal rally. Any potential rebound above the $329 ceiling could see its first major testing level at the $355 region.
To enter a long position, the buyers must wait for a convincing rebound from its current decline. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) entered the overbought region and hinted at a possibility of a reversal in the coming sessions.
Decreased Social Dominance & Funding rates

Over the past two days, BNB’s social dominance marked a sharp plunge. Empirically, the price action has been quite sensitive to this metric. Should the price follow, BNB could see a pullback in the coming sessions.
To top it up, an analysis of the BNB Funding rates marked a robust plunge over the last two days. This reading suggested a slight bearish inclination in the futures market.
Finally, investors/traders must keep a close eye on Bitcoin’s movement as BNB shares a relatively high correlation with the king coin.
