Axie Infinity price readies for a quick 15% gain as AXS bounces off the last support

  • Axie Infinity price slipped below the 50% retracement level and is currently bouncing off the range low at $45.93.
  • Investors can expect a 15% ascent to $55.11 as bulls make a comeback.
  • A four-hour candlestick close below $44.27 will invalidate the bullish thesis for AXS.

Axie Infinity price has been in a downtrend since posting a range high on February 7. The recent crash expedited the retracement for AXS, but bulls are likely to make a comeback.

Axie Infinity price to recover losses

Axie Infinity price rallied 56% between February 4 and 7, setting up a range extending from $45.93 to $72.01. The range high coincides with the weekly resistance barrier, making it a challenging level to crack.

The exhaustion of bulls seems to have led to a full retracement and AXS is currently bouncing off the range low at $45.93. Going forward, investors can position themselves to capitalize on the expected forthcoming leg-up.

The first hurdle that Axie Infinity price will encounter is the $55.11 barrier, signaling a 15% gain. However, this is not a point where AXS is likely to reverse. Hence, investors can expect the altcoin to extend even further to retest the 50% retracement level at $58.97, bringing the total ascent to 21%.

Regardless, market participants can hope for a gain that ranges between 15% to 20% as Axie Infinity price bounces off the range low.

While optimistic, this bounce for Axie Infinity price is dependent on Bitcoin price action given its impact on the overall cryptocurrency market trend. A failure for the big crypto to sustain its current bullishness could negatively impact AXS. In such a case, if Axie Infinity price produces a four-hour candlestick close below $44.27, it will invalidate the bullish thesis.

This development could lead AXS to retrace to the weekly support level at $37.66, where buyers can band together for a comeback.
