The zero-fee decentralized exchange StellarX has been just recently launched by InterStellar, a commercial entity which builds products and services for the Stellar blockchain. Two weeks ago, Stellar Lumens, XLM underwent an appreciation along with the rest of the market which brought it from a price around $0.2 to a week high of $0.3, a 50% gain.
However, it has since retraced despite a lot of anticipation regarding the launch of StellarX exchange. One drawback which has been noted in the media regarding the StellarX exchange is the tethering of assets which involves some trust in a third-party. The price is currently trading around $0.24. Price action is trading around the 50EMA which may provide some support. RSI has been dropping, and MACD has begun converging to the downside which shows increasing momentum to sellers. The MACD has also crossed its signal line to the downside, a bearish indication.
Volume for the drop has been far below the 20-period average daily volume showing a quick turnaround may be in store. This will likely depend on the movement of the market leader Bitcoin which currently represents around 52% of the total market cap for cryptocurrencies.
