The price failed to break yesterday’s highlighted bearish trend line at $0.2040 on the hourly chart. It even failed to break the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the previous decline from the $0.2245 high to $0.1910 low.

The decline resumed and the price broke the low at $0.1910 and even broke the $0.1700 support. A new low was formed at $0.1621 from where the price started a correction. It is currently trading near the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $0.2050 high to $0.1621 low.
