Basic Attention / USD Short-term price analysis
Basic Attention is bullish in the short-term, with the cryptocurrency recently performing a strong technical breakout from a descending wedge pattern on the four-hour time frame horizon.

Relative Strength Index
The RSI indicator is turning lower on the four-hour time frame, traders should watch the indicator to start to make lower lows.
Basic Attention / USD Medium-term price analysis
Basic Attention currently has neutral medium-term bias due to the cryptocurrency showing bullish and bearish price divergence on the daily time frame.
Price is moving towards the pair’s 200-day moving average, a sustained move above the 200-day would shift the BAT / USD pair’s outlook to bullish.
The daily time frame is showing that bullish momentum has remained consistently weak, despite the major upside breakout in the cryptocurrency.

Pattern Watch
A potential bullish inverted head and shoulders pattern is starting to take shape across the daily time frame.
MACD Indicator
The MACD indicator is showing bullish divergence from November of last year, whilst the most recent rally in the cryptocurrency has created bearish price divergence.
Momentum Indicator
The momentum indicator on the daily time frame is showing that buying momentum has remained weak during the latest upside rally.
Conclusion
Basic Attention may correct lower in the near-term, due to bearish MACD divergence present across the four-hour and daily time frames. However, upside risks are still present for the cryptocurrency, as the BAT / USD pair is showing bullish price divergence from last November, which could easily start to come into play if buyers force price above the pair’s 200-day moving average.
