Axie Infinity price eyes 45% gain after AXS flips two-month resistance

  • Axie Infinity price rallied 56%, slicing through a declining trend line after two months.
  • As AXS consolidates, there is a good chance AXS will trigger a 46% ascent to $81.54.
  • A breakdown of the range low at $45.93 will invalidate the bullish thesis.

Axie Infinity price exploded last week as it embarked on a massive run-up. This rally flipped a crucial hurdle into a foothold, signaling a major breakout. Therefore, investors can expect AXS to continue this upswing after a brief period of consolidation or retracement.

Axie Infinity price eyes higher high

Axie Infinity price formed a base around the $44.27 support level, triggering a 56% uptrend. This move set up a swing high around the weekly resistance barrier at $71.69 on February 7 after flipping the two-month resistance barrier into a support level.

Since then, Axie Infinity price has retraced 14% and is currently retesting the recently flipped declining trend line. An uptrend is likely to originate as AXS bounces off the support level, but market participants should be prepared for a retest of the 62% or 70.5% retracement levels at $55.81 and $53.60, respectively.

A bounce off the $53.60 foothold is likely to lead to a slice through the $71.69 hurdle and retest the next blockade at $81.54. This move would constitute a 46% ascent and is likely where the local top is capped for Axie Infinity price.

On the other hand, if Axie Infinity price continues to free fall, it will retest the range low at $45.93. A bounce off this barrier could recover the losses, however, a six-hour candlestick close below it will create a lower low, invalidating the bullish thesis.

In such a case, Axie Infinity price could revisit the $44.27 support level and attempt another uptrend.
