<p><a href="https://ambcrypto.com/search/dot" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">Polkadot [DOT]</a> has leaned <a href="https://eng.ambcrypto.com/polkadot-traders-get-cynical-despite-dots-surge/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">strongly north</a> in December so far. Despite the pullback from $7.68 over the weekend, the altcoin retained its bullish market structure. <a href="https://ambcrypto.com/search/bitcoin" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-wpel-link="internal">Bitcoin’s [BTC]</a> latest dip saw DOT recede considerably too.</p> 
<p>It is possible that a short-term resistance level just above $7 could rebuff bulls should DOT bounce in the coming hours or days. What should traders watch out for next?</p>

<p>From 7 December to 9 December, DOT saw a swift move north from $5.9 to $7.69. Soon after, the bulls were beaten back and prices momentarily dipped to $6.285 a few hours before press time.</p> 
<p>The explosive rally past $7 was used to plot a set of Fibonacci retracement levels (cyan). The 78.6% retracement level was at $6.284, where Polkadot prices withdrew. Therefore, two scenarios are possible. The bullish one is where DOT surges higher without dropping below $6.8.</p> 
<p>The slightly bearish scenario, at least in the short term, would be a slow drop towards $6.285 once more. Following such a dip, the uptrend could resume. In either case, to the north, the next bullish target is at $7.9 – A higher timeframe resistance level. The $8.21 and $8.8-levels could obstruct the buyers as well.</p>

<p>AMBCrypto analyzed the liquidation level data from Hyblock. The last couple of days saw the Cumulative Liq Levels Delta drop steadily. The latest fall to $6.3 saw it go red, suggesting that a move upward could contribute to pain in the Futures market.</p>

<p>Low leverage short positions were opened on 11 December with $7.12 as the estimated liquidation level. Combined with the negative Delta, a bounce in prices to collect liquidity before a reversal is possible.</p>

Polkadot’s price falls past $7 – How does this affect DOT’s prediction?
