Polkadot price prediction
DOT has eased below the resistance level of 42.50 after surging in the previous session. On Wednesday, the altcoin had its price soar by 28.33% from an intraday low of 33.54. Since the beginning of October, Polkadot price has risen by about 45.33%.
At the time of writing, the crypto was down by 2.93% at 40.42. On a two-hour chart, it is trading above the 25 and 50-day exponential moving averages.
In the near term, I expect Polkadot price to find support along 40.00. Below that level, the bears may manage to push the price to along the 25-day EMA at 38.56 before bouncing back to the aforementioned support zone. On the upside, 42.50 will remain a key resistance level for the altcoin.
