MACD Indicator
The MACD indicator on the daily time frame is bullish and continues to generate a strong buy signal.
Fundamental Analysis
The medium-term outlook for IOST looks promising. Although the project has just launched its mainnet, the team appears to have a clear strategy on how to grow its ecosystem. In addition to quality partnerships, the team is working on increasing the number of dApps on its network.
There are already 30+ dApps that will be launched on IOST, while the number of wallets is growing at a rate of about 10,000 per day. All of these factors should support the value of the project in the medium-term.
Conclusion
IOST has an improving bullish outlook over both time horizons, with the cryptocurrency on course to post its strongest weekly gain since May 2018.
The presence of the inverted head and shoulders pattern on the daily time frame suggests that the IOST / USD pair could trade significantly higher over the medium-term.
The oversold RSI indicator on the daily time frame and the bearish MACD divergence on the four-hour time frame are offering warning signs that a strong technical correction may occur once the cryptocurrency reaches its near-term target.
