STEEM Trading Update by my friend @cryptopassion

Here is the chart of yesterday :

Here is the current chart :

It looks like STEEM has decided to break the triangle with a UP move. This is not really a Break Out as we are missing some volatilities. However, the direction of the move is at least a good news. We could see now a little pull back on the superior line of the triangle and after that, a continuation of the UP move.
