Polkadot trades near 20‑day average, modest gains today
Polkadot (DOT) is trading close to its 20‑day moving average and has had a slight rise today. Over the past week it has slipped nearly 3%, but the month‑long trend is still positive.
What happened
The price is $1.147, up 0.61% today. In the last 7 days it fell 2.96%, while in the last 30 days it gained 0.88%. The 20‑day average is $1.172, slightly above the 50‑day average of $1.117.
Why it may have moved
No headline explains the move, so no clear single reason is found. The neutral mood and 50 RSI suggest no strong trend. Higher than normal volume (1.6×) and a high swing risk of ±4.6% indicate that normal market fluctuations may be driving the price.

- Price relative to 20‑day and 50‑day averages
