Polkadot price research indicates that the coin is on the rise. On the day's session, the price jumped 4 percent to $18.88. In doing so, DOT broke over the $18.51 resistance level, which is currently at $20.44. Furthermore, trading volume for DOT declined by more than 20%, presenting a perfectly positive picture throughout the day's trade.
Recent price movement suggests that most traders are ready to cash out, which will increase market volatility.
From January 17, the DOT value has been associated with a sinking cryptocurrency market, but it has just seen its first daily uptick since then. Traders are anticipated to be wary of the present volatility, which will aid in pushing prices down in the next session.

The cryptocurrency plummeted to a 25-week low on January 24, posting a 38.34 percent drop. DOT created an ascending triangle on its 4-hour chart during the last several days as the bulls strengthened their pressure.
While in line with the price, the initial support was mainly near the 50-point level. Furthermore, the CMF (Chainlink Money Flow) recovered above the midpoint and demonstrated a positive bias. Nevertheless, the OBV was unable to overcome its first resistance.
