Pullback Likely
The increased interest has been a major factor in driving up the price of TON, which is now trading at $1.78 as per data from CMC. In particular, TON has risen 19% in the previous 7 days and a whopping 48.9% in the last 30 days.
Its low point was $0.96 on June 12, and it recently tested the $1.95 level, which is an increase of over 100%. Nonetheless, a pullback might happen in the next days due to the presence of key resistance around the $1.97 mark.
If the price manages to break the $1.76 level then it might decline further all the way to $1.50 support level. On the other hand, if the price manages to break above the $1.97 resistance level then a fresh rally is expected.
