<h2>Past Performance of MATIC</h2>
MATIC coin price action shows a fall of almost 30% in the past week due to the increased selling pressure all over the market. The breakout of the head-and-shoulders pattern, mentioned in our <a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/matic-technical-analysis-price-falls-to-support-trendline-of-rising-channel">previous article</a>, is below the $2 support. The fallout results in a downfall of almost 15% within 24 hours, resulting in the formation of a bearish engulfing candlestick.

<h2>MATIC Technical Analysis</h2>
The MATIC coin price shows a rise in bearish trend momentum and selling pressure. It is evident by the pattern breakout and a 20% jump in trading volume. Moreover, the price falls below the $1.70 mark as it heads lower to the $1.5 mark.

The falling 20-day SMA breaks below the 50-day SMA as it heads lower to the 100-day SMA to give another bearish crossover. Moreover, the price breaks below all the SMAs except the 200-day line as it struggles to find support near it. 

The MACD indicator shows the MACD and signal lines cracking below the zero line in the daily chart. With the increasing trend of falling histograms and increasing gap between the fast and slow lines, the rise in selling pressure is crystal clear. 

The Momentum indicator shows a downfall in the slope below the zero line in the daily chart. The slope at -0.72 shows a sudden jump in the underlying bearish momentum.

Therefore, the technical indicators suggest a growth in bearish power as the price breaks below the $2 mark. Moreover, the 200-day SMA breakout seems imminent.
<h2>Upcoming Trend</h2>
The MATIC coin price action shows growth in underlying selling pressure after the fallout of the rising channel and the support level at $2.

The increased bearish trend momentum may shortly break below the 200-day SMA to reach the $.5 or $1.2 mark. However, if the prices find support near the 200-day SMA, the resistance levels are at $2 and $2.15.

At press time, the technical Analysis by TradingView gives a "SELL" signal for the MATIC coin.
