Polygon Technical and Fundamental Analysis (MATIC):

EMA 100 (100-Day Moving Average):

This is a key resistance level, as MATIC has consistently traded below it over the past two months. The failure to surpass the 100 EMA on April 9 further reinforced the bearish sentiment.

Ichimoku Indicator:

- Base Line (Red): This is a dynamic support level, the price has been tested many times but has not been able to maintain below this line, showing buying pressure at lower levels.

- Kumu Cloud: Price has moved into the Kumo Cloud, with the lower boundary of the cloud acting as support. This implies an increase in volatility. The Fibonacci retracement level of 0.618 located in the Kumo cloud is an important resistance level. If the price breaks above this level, there is a high possibility of a move towards the next resistance levels between $0.78 and $0.80.

Enhanced Smart Contract Operations:

- Amount of MATIC in Smart Contracts: The percentage of MATIC locked in smart contracts has increased significantly. This increase indicates more active network activity, especially in DeFi, staking, and other blockchain applications.

- Impact on Price: When more MATIC is locked in smart contracts, circulating supply decreases, reducing selling pressure and possibly leading to price increases.

Strategic Recommendations

Neutral Price Increase to Price Decrease:

- Stop Loss Point: If MATIC price loses the lower boundary of the Kumo cloud and breaks below the baseline at $0.70, placing a stop loss just below this zone may be a prudent strategy.

- Bullish Potential: A breakout above the Kumo cloud could increase positive volatility.
