The best-performing altcoins have resumed their bullish ascent, breaking above the moving average lines.
Except for ICP, these cryptocurrencies have the potential to continue their upward trend while above the moving averages.
Pippin
The Pippin (PIPPIN) price has been rising since February 10. However, the upward trend has remained below the $0.90 high since 26 February. The cryptocurrency price is currently oscillating above the moving average lines but remains below the $0.90 barrier. The price has held steady above the $0.60 support level.
On the downside, if the bears break below the 21-day SMA support, the altcoin may fall to the 50-day SMA support, or $0.41. The upward trend will resume once the price breaks above the $0.90 resistance level. This crypto is currently the top-performing cryptocurrency.

Decred
The Decred (DCR) price is rising while remaining in a sideways pattern. The cryptocurrency is retracing after reaching the $36.77 resistance level. It has pulled back and stalled above the $0.30 support. The upward movement will resume if it retraces and stays above the current support or the 21-day SMA barrier.

Today, the price is consolidating after crossing the $2.00 barrier, but it has paused above the $1.70 support. The extended candlestick wicks indicate significant selling pressure at the recent peak. The upward trend will resume once the price breaks above the $2.00 mark.

Buyers were unable to sustain bullish momentum above the 50-day SMA or the $1.80 resistance level. The cryptocurrency is retracing and is currently caught between the two moving average lines.
On the downside, if the bears break below the 21-day SMA support, the altcoin will return to its range above the $1.20 level. If the 21-day SMA support holds, the price will continue to move within a range.

Today, the bears pushed the price above the 21-day SMA support, attempting to drive it towards the bottom of the chart. If the 21-day SMA support is breached, ICP will revert to a price range above $2.00. ICP is the fifth-best-performing cryptocurrency.
