Recovery could be underway

Considering DOT’s mostly red price action over the last few weeks, a slight of of hope could be seen in DOT’s movement. At the time of writing, DOT’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) stood at 38.90. However, a slight uptick could be witnessed indicating the revival of buying pressure surrounding DOT.

While this wasn’t significant enough, it could be deemed as a start. Furthermore, a look at the Awesome Oscillator (AO) flashing green bars added to the revival of bullish sentiment toward DOT. Additionally, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) confirmed the reappearance of the scaled-down but hopeful bullish sentiment.

A tough road ahead

While DOT’s indicators put forth a slightly positive front, its metrics didn’t exactly share the sentiment. Data from Santiment highlighted that DOT’s weighted sentiment witnessed a downfall after making some strides. However, DOT’s development activity did witness an upsurge.

This indicated that developers were actively contributing toward the development of the network. Furthermore, a rise in DOT’s social dominance was a strong indication that DOT was gaining strength and momentum on the social front.
