Top 3 Coins to Watch Today: ALPHA, GRS, REI – July 5 Trading Analysis

Let’s take a closer look at today’s altcoins showing breakout signals. We’ll explain what the coin is, then dive into the trading charts and provide some analysis to help you decide.

1. Alpha Finance (ALPHA)

Alpha Finance Lab ALPHA is a cross-chain DeFi platform that looks to bring Alpha to users across a variety of different blockchains, including Binance Smart Chain (BSC) and Ethereum. The platform aims to produce an ecosystem of DeFi products that address unmet needs in the industry while remaining simple to use and access. ALPHA is the native utility token of the platform. Token holders can earn a share of network fees by staking ALPHA tokens to cover any default loans. Other use cases for the token include liquidity mining and governance voting.

ALPHA Price Analysis

At the time of writing, ALPHA is ranked the 349th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.1157. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

ALPHA dropped almost 87% from its April high by June 18, then saw a small rally. In the last week, the price has retraced before beginning consolidation near the 9 EMA.

The high of June 18’s swing low candle has given support near $0.1095. This level, just under the July monthly open, could continue to provide support.

The closest resistance is likely above June 26’s swing high, near $0.1232. This area showed inefficient trading before late June’s revisit.

A rally to this level could reach higher, to $0.1380. Relative equal highs provide an attractive target to bulls aiming for bears’ stops. This area also contains the 40 EMA, shows inefficient trading on the daily and weekly charts, and aligns with May’s consolidation lows.

A more sustained rally might reach higher to $0.1816. This is a significant swing high that started early June’s breakdown. The price is less likely to reach this high while market conditions remain bearish.

Since the larger market is bearish, traders should expect lower prices in the longer term. The weekly chart shows inefficient trading from $0.0960 to $0.0556. This general area may provide support for a longer-term bottom.

Inside this region, $0.0822 to $0.0800 shows inefficient trading on the daily chart. This level may be a sensitive bearish target, even if it doesn’t form a long-term bottom.

2. Groestlcoin (GRS)

Groestlcoin GRS is mined using the Groestl algorithm. Groestl was chosen as one of the five finalists of the NIST hash function competition. It uses the same S-box as AES in a custom construction. The cryptocurrency operates as open source software on a peer-to-peer model (transactions take place directly between the payer and payee). This means that no trusted intermediary, such a bank or PayPal, is required to verify the details of the sender and receiver. Rather, the transactions are verified by nodes (the network of computers/users spread globally) and recorded in an open ledger.

GRS Price Analysis

At the time of writing, GRS is ranked the 502nd cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.3456. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

GRS fell 66% from its April high before forming a range of fast, wild price moves.

An area near $0.3220 has provided support during three retests and could provide support again. Bulls may want to be cautious since many retests of a level increase the chance it will break. 

Still, this level marks the swing low that began July 1’s massive rally. A bounce could happen after the price takes bulls’ stops under this low.

A drop lower could tag a level near $0.2698. This level overlaps with swing highs at the top of the 2020-2021 bull run’s consolidation range.

Below, $0.2267 is also within striking range and could provide some support. This area, deeper in the old consolidation range, is the last point of significant accumulation before December 2020’s explosive rally.

Above, $0.4452 has provided resistance and could provide resistance again. Bears rejected bulls at this level on July 1, which overlaps with the June monthly open.

If the price breaks through this level, $0.5456 might be the next resistance. Moving to this level would run bears’ stops above relative equal swing highs. 

This level also shows inefficient trading on the monthly chart. It’s also near the final consolidation’s low before May 5’s sudden price collapse. Still, the market has shown no signs that a significant bullish reversal will come soon.

3. REI Network (REI)

REI Network was developed to better adapt to the development trend of the blockchain, and to achieve a lightweight, Ethereum-compatible, higher-performance, and no-fee blockchain framework. It is a new EVM-compatible public chain compared to GXChain 2.0, is development-friendly, lightweight and free, and thus can fully support the development of various types of on-chain dApps such as DeFi, GameFi, and Metaverse.

REI Price Analysis

At the time of writing, REI is ranked the 445th cryptocurrency globally and the current price is US$0.03521. Let’s take a look at the chart below for price analysis:

Source: TradingView

REI had a sharp 89% drop over nine days, beginning on May 4. So far, the price has respected this drop’s low.

Under the July open, $0.03171 provided support during a retest on June 30 and could provide support again. 

This level is near the high of mid-June’s consolidation range, and a significant swing low’s candle body formed on May 12. Anticipation for next week’s hard fork could help the price hold this level as support.

The recent swing high suggests resistance near $0.03825. The 40 EMA is entering this level, and daily candle bodies show that bulls rejected bears in this area on June 23.

If the bulls break through this level, the next significant resistance may be near $0.04784. This level provided resistance during late May and early June’s trading. It’s also near the midpoint of bearish rejections on May 19 and June 23.

A much more significant rally could reach as high as $0.10218 – unlikely, unless the overall market turns more bullish. This area shows inefficient trading on higher-timeframe charts. It is near April’s consolidation lows that preceded the last significant breakdown.

The charts show very little below the current price to suggest possible support. A swing low near $0.02000, where May’s drop ended, could provide support again. 

Below this swing low, no historical price action indicates support. The current range’s 25% extensions could hint at $0.00750 to $0.00500 as an area of possible interest to bulls.
