LDO Technical Analysis February 24, 2026: Will It Rise or Fall?

LDO is stuck in a narrow range at the $0.30 level ($0.29-$0.31); while RSI at 27.41 is in the oversold region, MACD shows a positive histogram, but the overall downtrend and position below EMA20 ($0.35) makes both scenarios possible.

Current Market Situation

LDO's current price is hovering around $0.30, with a slight 0.24% increase in the last 24 hours, staying within the $0.29-$0.31 range. Volume is at a moderate $25.69M level, but the trend continues generally downward. Looking at technical indicators, RSI at 27.41 is in the oversold region (which could signal a potential rebound), although a positive histogram is starting to form on MACD, bearish momentum dominates. The price is trading below EMA20 ($0.35), and the Supertrend indicator is giving a bearish signal, marking $0.37 as resistance.

In multi-timeframe (MTF) analysis, 8 strong levels were identified across 1D, 3D, and 1W timeframes: 2 supports/2 resistances on 1D, 2 supports/0 resistances on 3D, 2 supports/2 resistances on 1W. Critical supports are $0.2853 (score 81/100) and $0.2717 (70/100); resistances are $0.3133 (61/100) and $0.3006 (60/100). These levels will determine the scenarios depending on the direction of the breakout.

Scenario 1: Bullish Scenario

How Does This Scenario Occur?

For the bullish scenario, the $0.3133 resistance must first be clearly broken with a close above it. If supported by increased volume, this breakout could trigger a move toward the $0.37 Supertrend resistance. RSI recovering from oversold and approaching 50, along with a strengthening MACD histogram, would confirm the momentum turning bullish. Breaking EMA20 ($0.35) would also signal a short-term trend reversal. Sequential breaks of 1D and 1W resistances in MTF could enable a broader rally. This scenario gains strength with improving overall market sentiment (e.g., BTC recovery); the invalidation level is a break below $0.2853 support.

Target Levels

First target is the $0.37 Supertrend level, followed by the main bullish target at $0.4327 (score 8/10). Further levels could point to the $0.50 range via Fibonacci extensions or previous highs. The risk/reward ratio from a $0.30 entry to the $0.4327 target could be around 1:4, but always apply your own risk management. Reaching these targets should be confirmed by increasing volume and RSI above 70.

Scenario 2: Bearish Scenario

Risk Factors

The bearish scenario is triggered by a close below the critical $0.2853 support; if this level (score 81/100) breaks, panic selling could accelerate. The Supertrend's bearish signal and staying below EMA20 keep momentum downward. Even if RSI is oversold, new lows could come without divergence. If the MACD histogram weakens or turns negative, the downtrend deepens. Testing 3D and 1W supports in MTF brings lower levels into play. BTC breaking its own $62,931 support in its downtrend increases pressure on altcoins. The invalidation of this scenario is a break above $0.3133 resistance.

Protection Levels

First protection at $0.2717 (score 70/100), followed by the main bearish target at $0.1561 (score 22/100). In deeper declines, the $0.20 range should be watched. In terms of risk/reward, short positions after a $0.2853 breakout targeting $0.1561 could offer 1:3 R/R. These levels are confirmed by volume spikes and RSI dropping below 20; stop-losses should be set according to resistance levels.

Which Scenario to Watch?

The decision point is the breakout in the $0.2853-$0.3133 range: upward breakout activates the bullish scenario, downward the bearish. Confirm with 4H or daily closes, volume increase, and RSI/MACD divergences. The $0.3006 intermediate resistance could also be tested short-term. Stick to invalidation levels in both scenarios; a wait-and-see approach is educational in volatile markets.

Bitcoin Correlation

Altcoins like LDO show high correlation to BTC; BTC is currently at $63,597 with a -2.15% drop in a downtrend (Supertrend bearish). If BTC breaks $62,931 support, altcoin selling accelerates, pushing LDO below $0.2853. Conversely, if BTC breaks above $64,646 resistance (toward $66,693), the LDO bullish scenario strengthens. Rising BTC dominance limits altcoin rallies; BTC levels to watch: supports $62,931/$60,000, resistances $64,646/$66,693. LDO traders should prioritize BTC movements.

Conclusion and Monitoring Notes

LDO at a critical juncture: breakout of $0.2853 support or $0.3133 resistance will set the direction. Watchlist: RSI divergence, MACD histogram, volume profile, BTC $62,931 test.
