Key Takeaways

  • The Avalanche (AVAX) price attempts to create a bullish engulfing candlestick.
  • AVAX has traded inside a corrective pattern since its cycle high in March 2024.
  • Has AVAX finally started the upward movement that will lead to a breakout?

The crypto market pulled back yesterday, and Avalanche (AVAX) was no exception, sliding nearly 10%.

But while Bitcoin (BTC) recovered today, it’s AVAX that’s stealing the spotlight,  jumping 6% and once again making a run at the $26 resistance level for the fifth time.

Let’s dive into the charts to see if this could finally be the breakout.

AVAX Price Bounces

The weekly chart shows that since hitting its cycle high in March 2024, AVAX has declined inside a descending parallel channel. 

In April, AVAX bounced at the channel’s support trend line (green icon), and after some choppiness, it created a higher low and reclaimed the $20 horizontal area.

Reclaiming $20 was the first step in creating a bullish structure, and the final confirmation will be breaking out from the channel’s midline, which is what the AVAX price is attempting to do today.

The wave count suggests a breakout is imminent. It shows a completed A-B-C correction (red), hinting that expansion is right around the corner.

According to the count, the AVAX price is in wave three of a new five-wave upward movement, which is usually the most rapid portion of the ascent.

The two main targets are $74 and $110, making the current increase 0.618 and 1 times as long as the previous one.

But first, the bulls must clear one crucial hurdle: the channel’s midline at $26.

Momentum indicators already show promise. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) crossed 50, and the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) is almost positive.

Because of these charts, the AVAX price prediction for the rest of 2025 is bullish. Let’s analyze the short-term movement to see if the bottom is in.

Parabola Ahead

While the weekly AVAX chart is bullish, it pales compared to the daily one.

This series of 1-2/1-2 structures previously led to significant breakouts for LINK and PENDLE.

In Avalanche’s setup, the breakout is right around the corner.

The AVAX price has completed its third 1-2 wave formation, so a breakout is imminent.

Additionally, Avalanche is creating a bullish engulfing candlestick, completely erasing yesterday’s decline.

Once the market stabilizes, AVAX will likely break out from the $26 resistance and teleport above $70, completing wave three while doing so.

So, the $26 area is the line in the sand; a breakout from it could open the door to much higher levels.

AVAX Leads Crypto Rebound

After a flash crash yesterday, the AVAX price has been one of the strongest coins during today’s bounce.

Historically, assets that hold up well during corrections are the first to bounce when conditions stabilize.

Once the AVAX price breaks above $26, it could accelerate rapidly toward $70.
