Derivatives data shows improving sentiment

In addition, the long bets on the Binance exchange reached 1.84 on Wednesday, the highest level since January 7, further supporting the recovery thesis.

CoinGlass OI-Weighted Funding Rate data shows that the number of traders betting that the price of TON will slide further is lower than that anticipating a price increase.

Toncoin Price Forecast: TON rebounds after retesting daily support

Toncoin price corrected more than 11% last week and retested the daily support level at $1.31. At the start of this week, TON found support around the daily level and recovered 4.5% through Tuesday. As of Wednesday, TON is trading around $1.40.

If TON continues its recovery, it could extend the advance toward the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $1.59, which coincides with the descending trendline (drawn by joining multiple highs since early August).

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart reads 35, rebounding from the oversold conditions and pointing upward, indicating fading bearish momentum. However, for the recovery rally to be sustained, the RSI must move above the neutral level. Moreover, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) is also converging with decreasing red histogram bars below the neutral level, further supporting the recovery thesis.

On the other hand, if TON faces a correction, it could extend the decline toward the daily support at $1.31.
