According to the daily chart, Maker (MKR) is located in the range after a drop to $415. Currently, the token is accumulating strength for a move up or down as volatility drops. Besides, the trading volume continues to decline. In this particular case, the sideways trend may continue between the $506 support zone and the $413 resistance mark.

At press time, Maker was trading at $462.44.

Even though ZRX has recently shown signs of impressive growth, there is a high probability of seeing a correction soon. The trading volume has dropped, which might be a reason for a decline. If that happens, the nearest support mark is at $0.39, and this might be achieved next week. If the bulls maintain the aforementioned level, then the rise may continue.

At press time, ZRX was trading at $0.4330.
