Polkadot is the biggest gainer among the top ten, mainly following Bitcoin’s footsteps, which recovered above $18,000 on Friday. Recently the token embraced the buyer congestion at $3.6, bringing back stability after a significant breakdown from $7 (September’s peak).
At the time of writing, DOT is teetering at $5.3 amid a bullish building momentum. The bullish outlook has been validated by the Relative Strength Index, considering it is just about to enter the overbought region. If Polkadot closed the day above $5.5, the bullish case to $7 would have credibility.
