Stellar (XLM) has finally broken its silence with a fresh bullish signal, sparking renewed optimism in the altcoin market. After weeks of sideways trading, the SuperTrend indicator has turned bullish for the first time since late August, according to trader Ali (@ali_charts). Related Reading: This Bitcoin Cycle Changes Everything, Real Vision Analyst Explains Why XLM now faces a decisive test at the $0.386 resistance, a level where sellers have repeatedly pushed back in recent weeks. The bullish reversal came as XLM established support at $0.363, creating a stronger floor for accumulation. With volume steadily increasing around this zone, traders are treating the move as more than just a temporary bounce. If momentum holds, XLM could unlock a major upside move that shifts market sentiment. What’s Fueling Stellar’s Momentum? The broader crypto market’s recent stabilization has provided a healthy backdrop for altcoins like Stellar (XLM) to regain traction. Hidden accumulation patterns within key demand zones suggest larger wallets are quietly entering the market, strengthening the bullish case. On the technical front, the MACD has turned positive, while XLM’s RSI remains neutral at 48, leaving room for further gains without hitting overbought territory. Analysts note that a clean break above $0.386 could quickly open the door to higher targets at $0.390 and $0.400, with medium-term forecasts eyeing $0.45–$0.48 by October 2025. Institutional traders are also watching the $0.43 resistance closely. A confirmed breakout above this level could ignite stronger momentum, potentially pushing XLM into a sustained rally toward its 52-week high near $0.50. Bullish and Bearish Scenarios Ahead If Stellar manages to break and hold above $0.386, short-term targets sit at $0.41–$0.42, with a stronger push toward $0.45–$0.48 likely in the next 4–6 weeks. XLM's price trends to the upside on the daily chart. Source: XLMUSD on Tradingview However, failure at resistance could send XLM back to retest support between $0.38 and $0.383, with a deeper drop toward $0.37 possible if sellers regain control. For now, XLM trades at $0.384 with a 3.5% intraday gain, reflecting cautious optimism. Traders are closely monitoring volume expansion and momentum indicators as confirmation signals.

Technical analyst Rupert, host of the Allincrypto podcast, highlighted a major bullish setup that could send the cryptocurrency on a long rally. According to his latest analysis shared on social media, XRP’s chart is forming a structure that points to an eventual price target of $19.27, with the move being supported by its late 2024 breakout and its current positioning below its previous all-time high. Breakout From Long-Term Triangle Formation XRP has mostly been trading around $2.80 over the past week, ranging between $2.77 and $3.02. However, the cryptocurrency has managed to break above the $3 barrier in the most recent 24-hour period with a gain of approximately 3.9%. Related Reading: XRP RSI Remains Bullish As Support Levels Hold, Price Eyes Break Above $3.6 From a wider perspective, XRP’s latest price action is part of a much larger story that has been unfolding since late 2024. Leaving the shorter timeframes to higher timeframes shows that the cryptocurrency is currently consolidating just below its former 2018 all-time high. Particularly, technical analysis of a longer timeframe on the two-week candlestick chart, which was posted by Rupert on X, shows that XRP is now consolidating after breaking out of a multi-year triangle formation that dates back to late 2024. He noted that nearly two years ago, his team had already predicted a breakout from this formation, and since then, XRP has delivered more than 400% gains from that initial forecast. However, XRP is now back into the zone of its 2018 all-time high after reaching $3.65 in July, and this level is now acting as resistance. In his video, Rupert noted that it is common for assets to stall or retrace slightly after testing such important levels. Therefore, the way XRP is consolidating is less a sign of weakness and more of a setup for continuation. Furthermore, he noted that the chart is shaping into a cup and handle formation, which is another bullish pattern that contributes to the possibility of another strong rally. Path To $19.27 Still On Track Looking at the bigger picture, Rupert noted that the triangle projection is still pointing to a target of $19.27. Not only does the price confirm that, in regard to direction, the way XRP is trading on the smaller time frames and how it is interacting with a key level of significance at its previous all-time high is telling, in fact, that it’s got further upside to come. Related Reading: XRP Price Could See 20% Bounce To $3.4 If This Trendline Holds Additionally, he indicated that confirming signals from the total altcoin market capitalization (Total 3) reinforce the bullish scenario. This is important, as the total altcoin market cap registered its highest monthly close ever in August. As long as XRP bulls maintain its price above $2.8 to $3, then it is still on track to reach the projected $19.27 price target. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $3.02, up by 3.9% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com

Bitcoin’s recent price action has positioned the cryptocurrency at a pivotal crossroads. While it has successfully broken above a key long-term trendline, it remains locked in a consolidation pattern below its all-time high (ATH). This dual dynamic creates a compelling and uncertain environment, leaving investors to ponder the most critical question in the market: Is the next explosive rally finally loading? Bitcoin Breaks Long-Term Trendline: A Familiar Cycle Signal CryptoELITES, a seasoned crypto analyst, recently revealed a highly bullish perspective on Bitcoin’s recent price action. According to the analysis, Bitcoin has successfully broken above a key long-term trendline on its chart, a move that signals a significant shift in the market’s trajectory. Related Reading: Bitcoin Finds Crucial Support On Bull Market Band — Will Momentum Hold Following this breakout, Bitcoin has entered a consolidation phase. This pattern is particularly noteworthy because it mirrors the behavior seen in previous market cycles. Such post-breakout consolidation has historically served as a precursor to much larger price movements. Based on this historical precedent and the current chart pattern, the analyst is confident that a major move is on the horizon. BTC Faces Strong Rejection At Key Resistance Zone Despite the optimistic signals emerging from Bitcoin’s recent trendline breakout, not all analysts are convinced the market is ready for a full-fledged rally. In a recent update, Alpha Crypto Signal pointed out that BTC is still facing strong rejection at a key horizontal resistance zone on the daily chart. This resistance continues to weigh heavily on price action, keeping the broader structure tilted toward a bearish stance. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Recovery Hopes Rise – Can Bulls Push It Past Resistance? The analyst emphasized that unless Bitcoin achieves a convincing breakout above its ATH, any upward movement from current levels risks being a temporary recovery. In the analyst’s view, such moves could easily turn into a “dead cat bounce,” a short-lived rally that fails to establish sustainable bullish momentum. Adding to this caution, Alpha Crypto Signal also expressed skepticism about the ongoing altcoin rally, describing it as a potential liquidity trap. According to the expert, market makers could be using this surge to lure retail traders into premature long positions before triggering the next major downward leg. This strategy has been a recurring pattern in past cycles and should not be underestimated by market participants. Still, the crypto analyst acknowledged that short-term opportunities do exist. The expert emphasized that longing bounces remain a viable strategy, provided traders employ strict stop-losses and maintain disciplined risk management. Presently, the market is in a “trap territory,” which demands precision and caution, trade the moves, but avoid getting caught in setups designed to shake out the unwary.
