The $20 level is a crucial point for the alt as it acted as long-term support for most of May and June. Once that point is breached, the alt will be more likely to rally.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Further, the Relative Strength Index for the alt entered the neutral zone with a sharp downtick on 02 August.
