Optimism (OP) has experienced a market rebound in the past week gaining by 35.76% based on data from CoinMarketCap. The Ethereum layer-2 token hovers above $2.20 with investors strongly bullish on future price gains. However, certain trading indicators signal otherwise.

In a November 23 post on X, renowned crypto analyst Ali Martinez shared a bearish prediction on Optimism despite the token’s current upward trend. 


According to Martinez, the TD Sequential has flashed a sell signal on OP’s 4-hour trading chart, presenting the potential for an imminent price dip.  In trading markets, the Tom Demark (TD) Sequential indicator is commonly used to identify potential price exhaustion or continuations by analyzing patterns within price bars.


After OP’s rally in the past week, the TD sequential now points to a trend exhaustion, suggesting a possible price reversal. Following this signal development, Martinez predicts OP could slide to $2.0. However, further correction could force the token’s price to around $1.80 indicating a potential 18% decline from the current market price. Source: @ali_charts on X


Martinez’s price projection is further backed by OP’s Relative Strength Index, an indicator that measures the speed and magnitude of an asset’s price movement to determine if it is overbought or oversold.  According to data from OP’s 4-hour trading chart, the token’s RSI valued at 65.18 and descending from the overbought zone indicates buying pressure is weakening and a potential price correction is imminent. 


However, Optimism remains well above its 100-day simple moving average (SMA) which suggests a possible uptrend continuation.  This factor, combined with the present strong bullish sentiments in the altcoin market suggests OP may maintain its current price rally, reaching as high as $2.5 at which lies its next significant market resistance.

At press time, Optimism exchanges hand at $2.29 following a 1.64% gain in the past 24 hours. Meanwhile, the altcoin’s daily trading volume is down by 13.17% and valued at $860.51 million. On larger time frames, OP is significantly impressive notching gains of 35.76% in seven days as earlier stated, and 33.77% in the past 30 days.


Despite recent gains, the Ethereum-layer 2 token remains 54.65% away from its all-time high of $4.85. However, OP remains an investor favorite considering its status in the Ethereum ecosystem. According to data from Top 7 ICO, Optimism is the Ethereum layer-2 network with the third largest total value locked (TVL) valued at $6.46 billion falling behind Base ($7.02 billion) and Arbitrum ($14.3 billion). OP trading at $2.289 on the 4-hour chart | Source: OPUSDT chart on Tradingview.com Featured image from Coinmonks, chart from Tradingview
