- Shiba Inu price recalls sellers after facing rejection near the critical Fibo resistance at $0.0000294.
- Sandbox price retraces after the big technical breakout on the 12H chart, a buy the dip trade?
- Cardano price validates a rising wedge breakdown on the 12H chart, could rebound before retesting $0.75.
The sentiment within the crypto market is rather mixed, despite the minor recovery attempts led by the altcoins. Investors refrain from placing any directional bets on the higher-yielding digital asset, awaiting the outcome of round two of the Russia-Ukraine peace talks with bated breath.
The talks were supposed to start at 12 GMT, per Belta agency, as investors remain hopeful for a ceasefire in the ongoing war.
Bitcoin, the granddaddy of cryptocurrencies is trading on the backfoot below the $44,000 level while Ethereum remains sluggish below the $3,000 threshold.
The same mood is witnessed amongst the altcoins, although a slight optimism, as Shiba Inu, Cardano and Sandbox look for a renewed upside.
Let’s see how Shiba Inu, Sandbox and Cardano are positioned on the daily technical graphs.
Shiba Inu bears extend control, with 23.6% Fibo support back in dight
Shiba Inu price is extending the bearish reversal into the second straight day this Thursday, having run into strong offers just below the $0.000030 threshold on Tuesday.
The rebound in SHIB price from four-day troughs lost legs in the first half of this week, as a fresh selling wave gripped the crypto market a day before.
The tide once again turned in favour of SHIB bears, as the price extended its correction from a ten-day top of $0.0000286. The altcoin is now losing roughly 1% on the day, trading at $0.0000255 levels.
Looking at Shiba Inu’s price chart, the recent retreat has compelled the canine-inspired meme coin to cut through several critical support levels, exposing further downside risks.
After facing rejection below $0.0000294, the all-important 61.8% Fibonacci Retracement (Fibo) level of the rally from February 3 troughs to the February top of $0.0000352, SHIB bears took out the next significant support level of $0.0000276.
That level is the convergence of the 50.0% Fibo level, over a month-long rising trendline support-turned-resistance and ascending 200-Daily Moving Average (DMA).
The downward spiral accelerated below the last, swiping off the bearish 21-DMA at $0.0000268.
SHIB bulls lost all hope after Shiba Inu surrendered the crucial support at $0.0000259, where the horizontal 50-DMA coincides with the 38.2% Fibo level of the same advance.
Note that SHIB price will have to clear all of the abovementioned support levels now turned resistances if it wants to recapture the $0.000030 mark.

With the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI), however, pointing lower below the midline, an extension of the ongoing downside remains on the table.
The next relevant support is seen at $0.0000236, the 23.6% Fibo level, below which a fresh downswing towards $0.000020 will be inevitable.

Sandbox price looks to resume the uptrend towards the $4 mark
Sandbox price is on a corrective pullback from a ten-day top of $3.429 reached Wednesday, as sellers continue to lurk above the $3.40 round level.
In doing so, SAND bears are looking to flex their muscles towards Tuesday’s low of $3.095, although bulls appear to give them a tough fight amid an improving mood seen across the crypto board.
At the time of writing, the altcoin is trading around $3.240, down 1.25% on a daily basis, remaining on track to book the first weekly gain in four weeks.
From a short-term technical perspective, Sandbox price continues to look north, despite the recent retracement, as a symmetrical triangle breakout confirmed Tuesday on the 12-hour chart remains in play.
The RSI has turned flat just beneath the central line, suggesting that the pullback may be nearing an end.
Therefore, buying resurgence could initiate a fresh upswing back towards the multi-day top, above which the $4 level will come back into the spotlight.
Ahead of that round number, bulls could be challenged by the confluence of the 50-Simple Moving Average (SMA) and 100-SMA around $3.70.

On the flip side, the immediate downside seems cushioned by the intersection of the triangle resistance now support and horizontal 21-SMA around $3.12.
A firm break below the latter will revive the selling interest, exposing the original triangle support at $3.033.
The February 24 lows of $2.709 will be put to test on a 12-hourly candlestick closing below the latter.

Cardano bears need to crack this final suppurate the downside
Cardano price is making its headway towards the yearly lows of $0.747, as ADA bears refuse to give up control so far this Thursday.
Despite the extended sell-off, ADA price remains within Monday’s trading range, having failed to find conviction once again near the $1 level.
The so-called ‘Ethereum-killer’ is losing nearly 2% of its value while trading at $0.923, at the press time, with a temporary pullback likely on the cards, as portrayed by Cardano’s 12-hour chart.
The technical setup remains in favor of ADA sellers, as the price has confirmed a two-week-old rising wedge formation after yielding a 12-hourly candlestick closing below the rising trendline support at $0.921.
If the horizontal 21-SMA support at $0.896 is cracked on a sustained basis, then a sharp drop towards the February 27 low of $0.833 will be in the offing.
Further south, the yearly lows will be retested should the selling pressure intensify below the February 27 low.

If ADA buyers manage to defend the 21-SMA, then the rebound could face an immediate challenge from the wedge support now turned resistance at $0.934.
Acceptance above the latter is critical to unleashing the recovery towards the powerful upside barrier seen around the $1 psychological mark.
A convincing break above that level will invalidate the bearish wedge pattern, calling for a bullish reversal towards the descending 100-SMA at $1.085.
All in all, the bearish potential remains intact for ADA price and every bounce should be seen as a good selling opportunity.
