Key Takeaways

  • Polygon (POL) reached its long-term bottom in April 2025.
  • The POL price faces significant resistance at $0.37.
  • Has Polygon finally started its bullish trend reversal?

Polygon’s POL token has taken a beating this cycle, shedding 95% from its all-time high and forming a series of lower lows along the way.

However, recent price action suggests the tide may finally be shifting.

Is this the start of a sustained recovery, or just another short-term bounce? Let’s break down the chart and see what comes next.

POL Price Analysis

Polygon’s POL token has dropped a 95% from its December 2021 all-time high of $2.92.

While the decline wasn’t in a straight line, with a sharp bounce to $1.56 in mid-2022, that short-lived rally ultimately gave way to a deeper selloff.

The downtrend accelerated after a breakdown from a long-term symmetrical triangle in June 2024, confirmed by a bearish retest in December.

That led to a decisive move below the $0.37 horizontal support, pushing POL to a four-year low of $0.151 in April 2025.

But that may have been the bottom.

Recent price action suggests the tide could be turning.

The bounce from the April low completed a W-X-Y corrective structure, with waves W and Y nearly equal in length.

Momentum indicators back this potential reversal.

Both the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the MACD have formed bullish divergences.

Such divergences often lead to long-term bullish trend reversals and become even more accurate when combined with the wave count.

For now, the outlook suggests that Polygon may be gearing up for a long-awaited comeback, but it needs to clear resistance to prove it.

Polygon’s Bullish Trend

The shorter-term daily chart is even more bullish than the weekly one.

It shows that Polygon completed a five-wave upward movement (green) and the ensuing A-B-C correction (red).

In June, Polygon started another, larger five-wave increase and is now in wave three, which is usually the most rapid portion of the ascent.

The first potential target for the top of wave three is $0.35, which gives it 1.61 times the length of wave one.

This target will also take the POL price to the previously outlined long-term resistance area.

Then, the fifth and final wave could cause a Polygon breakout.

Signs of Reversal

Polygon’s reversal from long-term lows and bullish momentum ends the multi-year POL decline.

With bullish divergences in momentum indicators and a positive wave count, Polygon is likely to retest the $0.37 resistance again.
