The Stellar price has crashed by double digits over the past week, mirroring the dwindling climate of the altcoin market. However, if the latest price action is anything to go by, XLM could be gearing up for a significant bullish rally in the coming days. Here’s How XLM Is Gearing For A 20% Move
In a new post on the X platform, prominent crypto analyst Ali Martinez put forward an interesting prognosis for the Stellar price over the next few days. According to Martinez, the price of XLM could experience some relief soon, as a 20% upward move appears to be on the horizon.

The reasoning behind this bullish projection is the formation of a descending triangle pattern on the 1-hour timeframe of the Stellar price chart. The descending triangle is a technical analysis pattern that looks like a right-angled triangle with a diagonal falling upper trendline (connecting a series of lower highs) and a horizontal lower trendline (connecting the swing lows).
Typically, a descending triangle formation is considered a bearish technical analysis pattern or a continuation pattern with an established downtrend. Nevertheless, a descending triangle can also be a trend reversal pattern and a bullish signal, with the price breaking out in the initial trend’s opposite direction. Source: @ali_charts/X
As shown in the chart above, the price of Stellar recently found support at the horizontal lower trendline set around $0.274, bouncing back toward the $0.28 mark. However, Martinez suggested that the XLM price could be targeting the resistance zone between $0.28 and $0.29.
If the Stellar price does break out of the descending triangle pattern, Martinez expects the altcoin to move up by at least 20%, placing the target at around $0.33. For context, the price target for the descending triangle pattern is calculated by adding the vertical height between the sloping and horizontal trendlines.
A move toward $0.33 could be exactly what the price of Stellar needs to kickstart a fresh bull rally. In a separate post on X, Martinez revealed that the $0.55 mark might be a crucial level to watch for a sustained bull run. Source: @ali_charts/X
The chart above shows that the price of XLM has been rejected at $0.55 level multiple since 2018. However, it is worth noting that the more times the price tests a level, the weaker it becomes and the more likely it is to be broken. Stellar Price At A Glance
