Binance Hack Triggers BNB Sell-Off as Price Tests Key Support

Barchart · 1d ago

Good morning, crypto traders! The crypto market is moving lower because, as you may already know, Binance got hacked. Just another crypto exchange hack that caused fear, but the crypto market hasn't suffered that much, which puts that "hack" into question. Notice that Binance Coin (BNBUSD) has just spiked nicely lower into the projected wave "c" of an abc correction, reaching the previously mentioned support area. This is happening right now, as the whole crypto market is nearing support levels, so we may see a quick stabilization and recovery.

Binance coin may have completed wave "v" of an impulse within a potential wedge formation on the 4-hour chart, as we see it breaking below the trendline. After a completed subwave "a" that can be a leading diagonal, followed by a corrective pullback in wave "b" that nicely tested the 760 resistance area, we can now see a sharp decline into a projected wave "c". However, bulls may be back in control only above the channel resistance line and the 760 bullish confirmation level. Alternatively, it could also be a deeper corrective pullback in wave "iv", but even in this case we can expect a continuation higher for wave "v".
