Key Takeaways
The Stellar (XLM) price bounced today and shows decisive signs of bullish momentum.
As the price approaches the end of a long-term symmetrical triangle, all eyes are on it to see if a breakout is likely.
Let’s examine the chart and determine what will happen.
Stellar is one of the few cryptocurrencies that has created higher lows since the start of 2020, meaning that it did not fall to new lows at the end of 2022 or the beginning of 2024.
Since XLM failed to reach a new all-time high price in 2021, the price movement has created a symmetrical triangle.
The Stellar price is close to the triangle’s resistance, ready to make its fourth breakout attempt.
The wave count shows a completed A-B-C-D-E structure that ended in March 2025.
If this is the case, the XLM price has started an upward movement that will cause a breakout from the triangle.
Then, the only resistance preventing it from a new all-time high will be $0.80.

Adding to the positive Stellar prediction from the wave count, technical indicators also suggest the price will break out.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is above 50, and the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) is positive.
A closer look at the movement shows that Stellar ended its 16-day correction with a bullish engulfing candlestick on Aug. 7.
Stellar’s price broke out from a descending wedge today, confirming the XLM correction is over.
The breakout coincided with an RSI bounce at 50, confirming the validity of the price action.

If Stellar continues to increase, the next resistance will be at $0.62, created by the 1.61 external Fibonacci retracement resistance level.
The wave count gives the final bullish nod, showing a completed fourth-wave pullback and the start of the fifth and final upward movement.
There is an interesting fractal between the XLM and XRP prices, which have been almost identical since March.
Both have completed wave fours in five-wave upward movements, the only difference being that XRP trades inside a descending channel.

Nevertheless, since the XRP price has already reached its all-time high, XLM could be next to do so.
So, the XLM price prediction for the rest of 2025 is bullish, and a new all-time high is possible.
The technical analysis indicates that XLM is entering its final upward push.
A breakout past the $0.62 resistance could pave the way toward a new all-time high, potentially surpassing $0.80.
This prediction becomes stronger when considering the XLM to XRP correlation and the latter’s recent all-time high.
