Key Takeaways
Avalanche (AVAX) is the 12th most valuable cryptocurrency in market cap. Its price has increased by 15%, but last Monday, it slipped below the $15 mark.
However, the altcoin briefly jumped above $20 this week before a slight retracement. Despite the minor pullback, several indicators and some bearish patterns suggest that AVAX’s market value might continue climbing.
Here are the key levels to watch and possible price targets if the bullish outlook holds in the short term.
On the daily chart, AVAX’s price experienced a downturn from $45 in January to $15 earlier this month. This decline led to the formation of a falling wedge.
A falling wedge is a bullish pattern that typically signals a potential trend reversal to the upside — though it can also form an uptrend as a continuation pattern.
It appears when two downward-sloping trendlines converge. The upper trendline represents resistance and narrows alongside the lower one (indicating support).
As seen below, AVAX’s price has broken above the upper trendline, indicating that sellers are losing momentum. If sustained, and the altcoin fails to fall back into the price levels within the wedge, a sustained uptrend could be next.
Following this breakout, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) reading has climbed above the 50.00 midpoint. The RSI measures momentum using the size and speed of price changes.

Beyond that, CCN looked at the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). The MACD helps identify the strength and direction of a trend, as well as potential buy and sell signals based on crossovers and divergences.
It also tracks the difference between two exponential moving Averages (EMAs), typically the 12-period EMA and the 26-period EMA.
A bullish crossover occurs when the MACD line crosses above the signal line. On the other hand, a bearish Crossover shows up when the MACD line crosses below the signal line.
The 12 EMA (blue) has crossed above the 26 EMA (orange) on the daily chart. If this trend continues, AVAX’s price might hit a higher level in the coming weeks.

Regarding its short-term outlook, CCN noticed that the Awesome Oscillator (AO) reading has climbed to the positive region. The rise in the AO reading indicates bullish momentum.
If sustained, the next target for AVAX’s price could be run to $23.50 at the 0.786 Fibonacci level.
Should buying pressure increase and the price stay above the wedge’s upper trendline, it might climb to the 0.618 golden poker ratio at $30.42.

However, this forecast could be null and void if selling pressure outpaces the buying volume. In that case, AVAX might drop below $15 again.
