Uniswap price risks 45% crash by September despite Robinhood listing

cointelegraph.com:

The latest Uniswap (UNI) chart pattern suggests that investors should be prepared for a correction after gaining nearly 20% over the past week.

UNI's price has been trending upward since mid-June inside what appears to be a "rising wedge," which traditional analysts view as a bearish reversal pattern due to its history of luring bulls into buying fake-out bounces.

Therefore, rising wedges resolve after the price breaks below the lower trendline. Traders typically calculate a rising wedge's downside target by subtracting the distance between its upper and lower trendline from the breakdown point.

That puts UNI's downside target at $3.8 by September 2022, down 45% from today's price if the breakdown begins near $6.52. However, the target would shift upward to $4.65 if the breakdown originates at the apex, i.e., where the wedge's trendlines converge, resulting in a drop of 32.25% from today's price

Interestingly, a rising wedge also formed between February and April. The pattern snapped a 65% upside move, with a broader 70% price slump that took UNI's value to $3.56 per unit from around $12.50.

Simultaneously, Uniswap has also been painting an inverse head and shoulders (IH&S) pattern with an upside target sitting around $9.50, up 40% from current price levels.

The bullish setup has one fundamental backing: Robinhood.

Robinhood's listing doesn't guarantee an extended bull run, however, as the market has witnessed in Shiba
