🚀 Ethena (ENA) Price Surge: Bulls Charge Toward Six-Month Highs as Rally Accelerates

Ethena's native token ENA isn't just climbing—it's moonwalking past resistance levels as the crypto market shakes off its bearish hangover. Here's why traders are flipping bullish.

The breakout nobody saw coming

While traditional finance wrestles with bond yields and inflation data, ENA's chart paints a simpler picture: demand is outstripping supply. The token's 180-day performance curve now looks suspiciously like a hockey stick—the kind of pattern that makes short sellers sweat.

Liquidity flows tell the real story

Exchange order books show thinning asks above current prices, suggesting this rally might have legs. Of course, in crypto, 'legs' can mean anything from sustained growth to a pump-and-dump scheme—but let's stay optimistic (this time).

The cynical take

Just remember: every 'unstoppable rally' looks brilliant until the whales decide to cash out. But for now? Enjoy the ride—and maybe set some stop losses while the getting's good.

Ethena bulls target $1 amid a Golden Cross

Ethena holds over 1% gains so far on Monday after reaching a nearly six-month high of $0.7000 earlier in the day. ENA extends the bullish run above the $0.6576 resistance level, with bulls targeting the $0.7982 level, last tested on January 31. 

If ENA marks a daily close above this level, investors could witness the altcoin rising towards the $1.0000 psychological level. 

The Golden Cross between the 50-day and 100-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) signals a rising bullish shift in the short-term trend. Investors may view a possible upcoming 50-day and 200-day EMA Golden Cross as a buy signal, as it highlights the short-term bull run outpacing the longer-term trend.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) reads 82 on the daily chart, pointing at overbought conditions amid intense buying pressure. Such a condition often leads to a bearish reversal as buying pressure fades due to a profit-booking spree. 

Still, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator displays a rising trend in green histogram bars, suggesting heightened bullish momentum.

On the flip side, a reversal in ENA below $0.6576 could test the $0.5446 support level, marked by the February 2 low.
