UniSwap (UNI) Token is in the Midst of a Correction

In terms of market value, the UniSwap (UNI) token has done alright in the sense that it has more than doubled its value since being listed on multiple exchanges. UNI opened trading at an average value of $2.50. The token is now valued at $5.67 after hitting an all-time high value of $8.39 on the 18th of September and less than 48 hours after its official launch.

Judging by the fact that it is a very new token, there is not much historical data to provide a long term comprehensive market analysis. However, the lower time frames of 15 minutes and 30 minutes could provide information that would be more valuable to scalpers.

Also worth mentioning is that crypto-twitter is for the opinion that the top is in based on the fact that a few crypto personalities have started calling for a $50 UNI. This theory can be found via the following two tweets.
