- Fartcoin retained its bullish structure, and selling volume was weak despite the retracement.
- The channel lows at $1.3 could be retested before the next rally.
Fartcoin [FARTCOIN] rallied 12.4% over the past week. Yet, the memecoin market was not faring as well.
Since the 22nd of May, the memes as a whole have shed $10 billion. Their trading volume was down 33%, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
At press time, Fartcoin retained its upward trend. It had tried to surpass the 50% retracement level at $1.47. This Fibonacci retracement had been plotted using the precipitous drop the meme coin saw from January to March.
The uptrend was likely to continue, but Bitcoin [BTC] could have a big say on the next move. A BTC reset toward $100k or lower could shift the bias of FARTCOIN bearishly.
FARTCOIN is likely to defend $1.33 as support

The 4-hour chart highlighted a lack of selling pressure in the past two days. Even though the token saw a rejection at $1.6 and a subsequent 14% price drop, the selling volume was well below average.
The OBV barely slid lower, though the AO made a bearish crossover below the zero line. This momentum shift signaled a potential dip to the channel lows at $1.3. Traders looking to go long can bid Fartcoin at these levels.
