The post Coinbase Faces Potential Downturn Following Mixed Earnings Report appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Amid the ongoing crypto correction, led by Bitcoin (BTC), Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ: COIN), the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the United States by registered users and daily average traded volume, has been forming a possible reversal pattern. Having risen to a local top around $272 last month, COIN shares have been trapped in a falling trend in the past two weeks.
According to the latest market data, COIN shares have slipped over 20 percent in the past two weeks to trade at about $218 on Friday during the pre-market session.
From a technical standpoint, COIN shares on the weekly time frame have formed a possible double top coupled with a bearish divergence on the Relative Strength Index (RSI). A further drop in the Bitcoin price could trigger a larger capitulation of COIN shares in the near term.
