• Algorand price continues to congest and build pressure.
  • A major breakout to the upside is likely to begin very soon.
  • Some warning signs of bearish price action are present.

Algorand price continues to constrict and consolidate, with the Saturday price action being the first in the past three days to show a hint of an imminent breakout higher.

Algorand price has two trade setups available on its Point and Figure chart

Algorand price action, while leaning towards the bullish side of a trend, also has a short opportunity in play. A trading opportunity for the long and short side of the market is currently present.

A hypothetical long entry for Algorand price is a buy stop order at $1.00, a stop loss at $0.92, and a profit target at $1.25. The trade represents a 3.13:1 reward for the risk. The entry would confirm a rare and powerful Point and Figure pattern known as the Ascending Quadruple Top Breakout.

A two to three-box trailing stop would help protect any profit made post entry. The long idea is invalidated if the short entry below is triggered first.

The entry at $0.88 is based on the breakout below a Triple Bottom pattern, with a profit target near the most recent major swing lows.
