The model showed a battle between bulls and bears at $1.63 resistance during evening hours.

Support held firm near $1.56 as momentum faded into thin holiday trading, according to the model.

Volume spiked 71% above the 24-hour average to 4.69 million tokens, coinciding with selling pressure from the session peak of $1.62, the model said.

The token completed a double-bottom formation at $1.52 support before rallying through $1.56 resistance.

Technical Analysis:
  • Primary resistance holds firm at $1.66 through multiple tests while support consolidates near $1.56
  • 11% drop in volume versus 30-day metrics signals trader fatigue, though selective spikes above 46,000 tokens reveal pockets of accumulation interest
  • Double-bottom structure at $1.52 support triggers recent rally attempt, creating potential launch pad for moves above $1.56 resistance
  • Upside breakout targets $1.58-$1.585 resistance cluster while breakdown below $1.56 support opens path to $1.52 retest levels

Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be

The post Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers are off to a 2-0 start. Getty Images The Green Bay Packers are, once again, one of the NFL’s better teams. The Cleveland Browns are, once again, one of the league’s doormats. It’s why unbeaten Green Bay (2-0) is a 8-point favorite at winless Cleveland (0-2) Sunday according to betmgm.com. The money line is also Green Bay -500. Most expect this to be a Packers’ rout, and it very well could be. But Green Bay knows taking anyone in this league for granted can prove costly. “I think if you look at their roster, the paper, who they have on that team, what they can do, they got a lot of talent and things can turn around quickly for them,” Packers safety Xavier McKinney said. “We just got to kind of keep that in mind and know we not just walking into something and they just going to lay down. That’s not what they going to do.” The Browns certainly haven’t laid down on defense. Far from. Cleveland is allowing an NFL-best 191.5 yards per game. The Browns gave up 141 yards to Cincinnati in Week 1, including just seven in the second half, but still lost, 17-16. Cleveland has given up an NFL-best 45.5 rushing yards per game and just 2.1 rushing yards per attempt. “The biggest thing is our defensive line is much, much improved over last year and I think we’ve got back to our personality,” defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz said recently. “When we play our best, our D-line leads us there as our engine.” The Browns rank third in the league in passing defense, allowing just 146.0 yards per game. Cleveland has also gone 30 straight games without allowing a 300-yard passer, the longest active streak in the NFL.…
