The broader cryptocurrency market came back under downside pressure on Tuesday, as Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies gave back early week trading gains.

Matic Network is under heavy bearish pressure, following a flash crash late-Monday night. Matic had rallied by over 190 percent since November 22nd before the sudden reversal occurred.

Chainlink is the top performing cryptocurrency inside the top 100 by market capitalization, while Ravencoin, Vechain and MINDOL are among the weakest.

The total cryptocurrency market capitalization is $192 billion as measured by TradingView.

Matic Network

Matic Network has slipped back towards the worst levels of November, following a heavy rejection from the $0.043 level on Monday. Detailed analysis is available on Crypto Briefing.

The cryptocurrency had been building substantial amounts of bearish MACD price divergence during its recent triple-digit advance. The recent crash has completely eroded the bearish divergence.

The cryptocurrency could start to test back towards the $0.030 level before the next major move lower resumes. A recovery back above the November breakout area would be encouraging for MATIC/USD bulls.
