Coinbase (COIN) Shares Rise by Approximately 18% in Two Days
FXOpen
According to the chart, while trading in cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase (COIN) shares opened around $166 on Friday, yesterday's session closed above $196, marking a price increase of around 18% in just two days.
Factors contributing to the sharp rise in Coinbase (COIN) shares include:
→ Bullish sentiment in the US stock market;
→ Expectations of strong earnings – Coinbase is set to report its Q3 results to investors on 30 October. According to Zacks analysts, Coinbase Global could post earnings of $0.34 per share this quarter, representing a 3500% increase compared to the same period last year.
→ A rise in cryptocurrencies. As the BTC/USD chart shows, Bitcoin's price has risen above $65k.
Technical analysis of the COIN share chart indicates that in October, the price bounced from the lower boundary of an important channel (shown in blue), which has remained relevant since 2023. This suggests that bulls may be attempting to resume a long-term uptrend.
On the other hand, the price may face resistance in the coming days at the psychological level of $200 per COIN share, which was previously a support level (as shown by the first arrow). In late August, bulls struggled to hold above this level (as indicated by the second arrow), emphasising the significance of psychological levels – note the false breakout at $150 on 6 September.
According to a TipRanks survey, the average price forecast for COIN shares is $258 over the next 12 months, with 7 out of 15 analysts recommending a buy.
