Polkadot (DOT) is making waves as the cryptocurrency market shows signs of recovery. With a market cap of $6.68 billion, DOT has gained 4.12% in the past 24 hours, sparking speculation about a potential rally beyond the $5 psychological barrier. Could this October rally mark the beginning of a trend reversal for Polkadot?
Polkadot Inches Closer to Trend Reversal
Polkadot’s recent price action hints at a bullish shift after enduring a 62.62% decline from its 52-week high of $11.89. Over the last seven days, DOT bounced back from a low of $3.949, surpassing its 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and now testing the 50-day EMA—a critical resistance point.
Adding to the optimism, a bullish crossover between the 20-day and 50-day EMAs signals the potential for upward momentum. Yesterday’s 5% jump was marked by a bullish engulfing candle, followed by an additional 1.58% intraday growth today. The daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) shows bullish divergence, suggesting growing market confidence and increasing chances of a breakout.
A successful breach above the 50-day EMA could pave the way for a sustained rally, with eyes set on higher Fibonacci levels.
Analyst Predicts Bull Run to $20
Crypto analyst Martinez Ali has expressed bullish expectations for Polkadot, drawing parallels between DOT’s current setup and Fantom’s past price movements. In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), Ali predicted that Polkadot could reach $9.7 in the coming months, followed by a pullback to $6.7, before embarking on a larger rally toward $20.
Key Targets and Support Levels
Using Fibonacci retracement levels, DOT’s recovery rally faces its next challenge at the 200-day EMA around $5.49. If successful, Polkadot could target the 23.6% Fibonacci level at $5.799 and potentially push toward the 38.2% level at $6.9 and $7.789.
On the downside, $4.27 (20-day EMA) and the $4 psychological level will serve as crucial support zones if the market turns bearish.

While key resistance levels lie ahead, market sentiment is tilting bullish, increasing the chances of a trend reversal this October.
All eyes are now on whether Polkadot can sustain its momentum and trigger a bull run toward new highs. Keep a close watch—October could be a game-changer for DOT holders.
