Yearn Finance price capitalizing on the fierce race for yield
At the time of writing, Yearn Finance price is up 18%, following yesterday’s 17% gain and bullish outside day on the bar chart. The two-day gain is the second-largest since the broadening ascending channel began in November 2020, driving the daily RSI above the popular overbought level of 70. Moreover, YFI sliced through the 161.8% Fibonacci extension of the 2020 bear market of over 80%.
Based on the historical precedent of other local tops during the duration of the channel, Yearn Finance price is likely one or two days away from marking a new local top. Specifically, when the daily RSI has crossed 70, Yearn Finance price has shifted into a correction within three days or less. If Yearn Finance price continues the rally, it should be complete by Thursday or Friday.
A continuation of the rally, prescribed by the historical levels of volume, will first discover resistance at the channel’s upper trend line at $94,955 and then the 261.8% extension of the 2020 decline at $102,900, representing a 40% gain from the price at the time of writing.
