Key Takeaways
TRON (TRX) has been trading within an ascending channel pattern following its recovery from a long corrective phase ending mid-March.
The daily chart shows a breakout from the WXY structure and a sustained climb toward key resistance zones.
However, the 1-hour chart reveals weakening momentum and an ending diagonal (fifth wave) structure, hinting at a near-term correction.
The macro trend remains intact, but a pullback appears imminent before any continued upside.
On the higher time frame, TRX has advanced steadily since bottoming at $0.21 in March.
The move unfolded within an ascending channel, with price nearing the upper resistance trendline around $0.275.
This follows a breakout from the corrective WXY pattern, suggesting the early stages of a macro trend reversal.
However, the price is now approaching the 0.236 Fibonacci retracement at $0.266, which has historically acted as a pivot level.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains neutral, hovering around 560, but the lack of breakout acceleration hints at consolidation or a local top.
Price rejection from the upper wedge boundary reinforces the case for a correction.
If a breakdown occurs, the next support lies at the mid-wedge zone near $0.25, followed by $0.235 and $0.21 – the base of the larger structure.
Structurally, the market may be finishing wave (V) of an impulsive sequence, and a broader ABC correction could unfold next.
Unless the $0.266 level is reclaimed decisively, further upside in the short term seems unlikely.
Since Monday, we saw an increase of 4% due to the 0.236 Fib level bounce, but this may not be enough to transition into the next upward move.
The lower timeframe chart confirms bearish divergence and a potential breakdown setup.
TRX appears to have completed a five-wave impulse within a rising channel, with wave (V) displaying signs of exhaustion.
Price forms a descending triangle below $0.275 resistance, and a breakdown below $0.266 (0.236 Fib) would confirm the beginning of a corrective wave A.
The projected move shows wave A targeting the lower channel support near $0.255, followed by a corrective wave B bounce back toward $0.266–$0.270.
This would complete a classic ABC retracement, with wave C potentially extending to $0.235 or $0.225, in line with the support trendline and historical congestion zones.
The RSI on the 1-hour chart is showing lower highs despite price consolidation, a bearish signal suggesting that momentum is waning.
A decisive breakdown could occur once support at $0.266 gives way.
The initial bearish target for wave A lies around $0.255 (the ascending support), while wave C could extend as low as $0.225 (0.618 Fib retracement from five-wave impulse) before buyers return.
This breakdown scenario remains the most probable unless bulls push back above $0.275 with volume.
The broader uptrend remains valid on the daily chart, but near-term traders should be cautious.
