Stellar (XLM) has experienced a nearly 19% increase in value over the past week, bringing its market capitalization close to $9 billion. Several technical indicators point towards a bullish trend, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) surpassing 70, the Average Directional Index (ADX) indicating strengthening trend momentum, and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) lines confirming upward momentum.
XLM is currently trending upwards, approaching significant resistance at around $0.30. However, there is a risk of short-term pullbacks if support levels are breached, indicating the possibility of overheating.
The recent surge in XLM's RSI to 71.5 from 55.2 three days ago suggests strong buying activity and growing investor confidence. While high RSI levels can indicate intense demand, they also hint at potential overbought conditions that could lead to increased volatility or price corrections.
Additionally, the ADX, which measures trend strength, has risen to 37.41, indicating a robust uptrend. The DMI chart confirms this trend, with the +DI showing increasing upward pressure and the -DI reflecting reduced selling pressure.
In terms of EMAs, the short-term indicators are currently positioned above the long-term ones, signaling sustained upward momentum. To maintain the bullish structure, XLM needs to hold its key support level at $0.279, as breaking below this could trigger a more significant correction, potentially leading to a slide towards lower support levels around $0.258, $0.239, or even $0.20. On the upside, breaking above $0.30 could pave the way for further gains towards $0.349 and $0.37.
