Avalanche (AVAX) is currently trading at $26.42, after an impressive 30% surge from the $20 mark to $27.
After a sharp correction from its March peak, Avalanche has been relatively quiet, underperforming stronger altcoins. However, Avalanche is gaining momentum as analysts and investors share crucial data pointing to a potential rally in the coming months.
This renewed optimism suggests that Avalanche could be on the verge of a significant breakout, making it a stock to watch closely as the market evolves.
A gathering of avalanches on the horizon
Avalanche is generating significant buzz among investors and analysts who anticipate a potential rally from its current level to new highs.
Prominent cryptocurrency analyst and investor Allincrypto recently shared a detailed chart on X, providing a technical projection of AVAX’s next major move. The chart highlights AVAX’s price action since the last rally, emphasizing the importance of the $20 price level. This level was a major resistance point several months before the last rally. Yet, recent price action has confirmed it as strong support after a successful retest in recent weeks.
The technical outlook suggests that Layer-1 (L1) could be on the verge of a significant bullish move, similar to the rally it experienced between October 2023 and March of this year. That period saw AVAX make remarkable gains of over 600%, and many in the crypto community believe that current market conditions could lead to a similar (or larger) outcome.
A combination of strong technical indicators and growing investor confidence is fueling anticipation. With Avalanche holding firmly above its previous resistance and turning it into support, the way seems clear for a fresh rally that could propel Avalanche to new highs. The next few weeks will be crucial in determining whether AVAX can maintain this momentum and meet the bullish expectations set by the crypto community.
AVAX hits $27, breaks local high
Yesterday, AVAX surged to $27 on the back of excitement over comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell suggesting a potential policy shift, with investors now expecting a 25bps rate cut by September 18. This announcement fueled optimism in the cryptocurrency market, pushing AVAX to this price level.
However, after reaching $27, AVAX started consolidating below this price, currently trading at $26.35. This consolidation comes after it managed to break above the previous high at $22.8, signaling strength and setting its sights on the next major resistance at $33.
For AVAX bulls, maintaining momentum above $27 is essential to sustain the upside. However, if the price fails to hold and consolidate above this level, the anticipated upside could be further delayed as it has yet to break above the 200 daily moving average, a key indicator to confirm an uptrend. Holding above this moving average would signal that Avalanche is on track for further gains, but until then, the market remains cautious.
