As market makers gathered the liquidity that fueled the pump in MATIC’s price over the last two days, the price dropped to the daily 20 EMA level. MATIC’s price has risen easily above the daily 9 and 20 EMA lines because of this pump. So, the 9 EMA line is currently keeping MATIC’s price from falling.
The daily technical indicators for MATIC are bullish because the 9 EMA line is above the 20 EMA line and is moving away from the 20 EMA line, which is a sign that bullish sentiment is growing. The daily RSI line has also moved above the daily RSI SMA line and is sloping in the direction of “overbought.”
