The price of Lido Finance’s LDO token rallied by 20% in the past seven days, data from CoinMarketCap revealed. According to Cryptowatch, the #66 largest cryptocurrency shares a statistically significant positive correlation with Bitcoin [BTC]. However, within the same period, the price of BTC did not log a similar price growth.
As of this writing, LDO traded at $1.95. Although the token saw a significant price rally in the past seven days, a look at its performance in the past 24 hours told a different tale.
Trading at the $1 price region, LDO currently exchanged hands at its May level. According to data from CoinMarketCap, the token’s trading volume in the last 24 hours was up by 28%.
Albeit little, the divergence between the token’s price and its trading activity within the same period only pointed at one thing – investors taking advantage of the price rally in the last week to make a profit.
On a daily chart, LDO investors were spotted to have gradually emptied their bags. As of this writing, the token’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) was positioned below the 50 neutral spot at 47.
Its Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) posted a negative -0.11. These indicated that despite the price rally in the last week, buying was starting to slow down, and a price correction might be underway.
