Mantle Price Forecast: MNT’s 20% surge reclaims key support as bulls eye $1

• Mantle extends recovery, surging 20% on Monday, backed by bullish sentiment in the broader crypto market.
• Mantle reclaims support above 50-day, 100-day and 200-day moving averages as bulls tighten their grip.
• Multiple buy signals could emerge as RSI rises toward overbought territory.

Mantle (MNT) price posts one of the strongest intraday rebounds on Monday, backed by strong retail interest and risk-on sentiment in the broader cryptocurrency market. The bullish sentiment follows extremely oversold conditions last week, triggered by macroeconomic uncertainty and the impact of higher tariffs in the United States (US), which are expected to take effect later this week.

If MNT upholds the bullish outlook and settles above a higher support level in upcoming sessions, risk-on sentiment could accelerate the recovery toward the $1.00 key milestone.

Mantle rebounds as interest in the token rises

Mantle’s derivatives market has experienced a significant comeback over the last 24 hours as the Open Interest (OI) increases 69% to $36 million. Such a strong rebound suggests that traders are increasingly betting on MTN extending the gains. 

A subsequent increase in the futures funding rate from negative territory to 0.0099% backs bullish sentiment. 

According to CoinGlass data, no long position holder has been liquidated over the past 24 hours compared to approximately $199,000 worth of short position liquidations.

Technical outlook: Mantle offers bullish signals

Mantle price remains bullish at the time of writing, exchanging hands at around $0.86. The token holds above key support levels, including a recently broken descending trendline, the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $0.75, and the confluence formed at $0.71 by the 50-day EMA and the 200-day EMA.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI), which has rebounded into bullish territory at 64, reinforces the strong bullish grip. If the RSI upholds the uptrend toward overbought territory, it would suggest a surge in buying pressure amid bullish sentiment.

Mantle’s bullish structure has the backing of the SuperTrend indicator, which triggered a buy signal on July 12 when the price flipped above the indicator, changing its color to green from red. 

The SuperTrend is a trend-following indicator that incorporates the Average True Range (ATR) to gauge market volatility. It functions as dynamic support or resistance, which could explain Mantle’s bullish reaction following its emergence.

MNT/USDT daily chart

Still, traders should temper their bullish expectations considering the Money Flow Index (MFI) indicator’s significant downswing from overbought territory the previous month to near the oversold region as shown on the daily chart.

Key areas of interest to traders are the resistance at $0.85, which has been tested but not broken. If broken, Mantle could accelerate the rally toward the next target at $1.00. On the flip side, the 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day EMAs could serve as tentative support levels in case of a surge in profit-taking, or a change in market dynamics across the cryptocurrency market.
