Key moving averages, including the 200-day EMA, play catch-up with Bonk's uptrend, signaling a robust bullish momentum. Bonk (BONK) price consolidates gains of around $0.000023 on Wednesday after breaking out of a cup and handle pattern. The technical breakout, eyeing almost a 60% increase to $0.000034, is part of a broader bullish wave in the cryptocurrency market, accentuated by high risk-on sentiment. Bonk's breakout stalls as technical indicators remain resilient Bonk's price recovery from the tariff-triggered sell-off to April's low of $0.000008 temporarily stalled at $0.000021 on April 27 before retracing slightly to $0.000017, an area tested as support and resistance in February and March. Based on the daily chart, this price action established a cup and handle pattern, projecting a 60% rally to $0.000034. The decline to $0.000017 was quickly absorbed by traders buying the dip, which accelerated the bullish trend's continuation and validated the technical pattern. A cup and handle is a bullish pattern that signals a potential trend reversal, following an extended bearish period. It is characterised by a rounded bottom forming the 'cup' and a consolidation phase, establishing the 'handle.' The pattern indicates strong buying interest and a potential breakout with increased trading volume. Bonk's break above the neckline resistance, currently acting as support at $0.000021, confirmed the cup and handle breakout, highlighting a 60% potential move to $0.000034. This target is determined by measuring the pattern's height from top to bottom and extrapolating it above the breakout point as illustrated on the chart. BONK/USDT daily chart The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator's position above the centre line supports the bullish outlook. Notably, the MACD line (blue) holds above the signal line (red) after validating a buy signal on Friday. BONK is trading well above all critical moving averages, with the 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) near $0.000020, the 100-day EMA just below $0.000018, and the 50-day EMA at $0.000017. This alignment underscores strong bullish momentum, reinforcing BONK's potential to climb toward the cup and handle breakout target of $0.000034, provided buying pressure persists. Meanwhile, Bonk is poised to deliver its second consecutive month of positive returns, with CryptoRank data showing a 21.4% gain so far in May, following April's impressive 73.4% surge. Bonk monthly returns | Source: CryptoRank Looming risks threaten Bonk's uptrend Despite the favorable technical outlook, traders should watch for the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator's behaviour as it enters the overbought territory. An RSI reading above 70 signals overbought conditions, implying strong bullish momentum. However, this overbought condition heightens pullback risks. If traders adjust positions, even taking profits, it could trigger a trend reversal as sell-side pressure soars. Hence, traders need to keep tabs on tentative support areas at the 200-day near $0.000020, the 100-day EMA just below $0.000018, and the 50-day EMA at $0.000017.
