Cryptocurrency Market Update: Quant, Polkadot, Uniswap, and Pi Network Prices Fluctuate

Cryptocurrency prices experienced fluctuations on February 26, following significant losses the previous day. Among the closely watched tokens, Quant, Polkadot, Uniswap, and Pi Network displayed notable price movements.

Quant Price Rises After Bullish Candle Formation

Quant, a cryptocurrency project focused on real-world asset tokenization, traded above the $110 mark before giving back some of its gains. The price increase may have resulted from a bullish engulfing pattern on the daily chart, which occurs when a red candle is followed by a larger bullish candle that fully covers it.

This pattern is one of the most well-known candlestick patterns in technical analysis, often indicating a potential price reversal. The Quant price rise marks its highest level since February 1, with no major news events linked to the surge.

Polkadot Price Rises After ETF Applications

The Polkadot coin jumped after Grayscale filed to list a spot DOT exchange-traded fund, which has higher chances of approval. Polkadot has shown strong technical support at $3.90, a level it has held since 2023, and has formed a quadruple bottom pattern with a neckline at $11.77.

Additionally, Polkadot has entered the accumulation phase of the Wyckoff Theory, which is typically followed by the markup phase, where demand exceeds supply, often leading to a parabolic price movement. The initial price target for Polkadot in the markup phase is $11.70, followed by the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level at $16.

Uniswap Rises After SEC Drops Charges

Uniswap price rose slightly after the Securities and Exchange Commission dropped charges against the exchange. The Uniswap token has formed a double-bottom pattern, pointing to a brief rebound.

Pi Network Price Rises Ahead of Binance Listing

Pi Network has become one of the best-performing coins this week, outperforming Bitcoin and other altcoins. Its surge is mostly due to the upcoming Binance listing, as more than 85% of users have agreed to it.

Pi coin is also rising as investors embrace Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) following its mainnet launch last week. The next key event will happen on Friday when the grace period for the KYC verification ends.

Risk of a Dead Cat Bounce

There is a risk that the ongoing recovery of bitcoin and most altcoins may be a dead cat bounce—a temporary rebound before resuming a downward trend. A dead cat bounce, also known as a bear trap, occurs when an asset in a prolonged decline briefly rallies before continuing its downward movement.

Traders should remain cautious and monitor market movements closely to avoid potential losses.
