But this isn’t the only technical indicator hinting that may be in for a rally, despite underlying fears about the legitimacy of Tether.
As a trader going by the moniker “The Wolf Of All Streets” points out, the Tether imbroglio hasn’t done much to hurt the ascending channel that is in. In fact, is still within the structure to a tee, indicating that if all pans out, a slow trend higher is entirely possible in the coming weeks.
