Bancor Price Analysis
Bancor was seen hitting a fresh YTD high in August above $2.5 at $2.78, just when the market’s major altcoins were seen spurring too. However, following the market sentiment, the BNT price dipped from the YTD high to hit the lowest of the past ten weeks at $0.71 to retest 3-month support.
However, with an amplifying momentum in the market, Bancor has also been one of the top gainers, and with a bullish candlestick, it is hitting the upper 20-day Bollinger Band and currently trades at $1.31. With this, the coin is holding complete support from 50-day and 200-day MA at $1.18 and $1.00, respectively.
