Axie Infinity price to steepen its downtrend as AXS eyes 20% correction

  • Axie Infinity price has sliced through the 50% retracement level at $129, suggesting a further downswing is likely.
  • A rejection at the $131 to $135 supply zone will confirm the bearish outlook and kick-start a 20% correction to $102.
  • A daily close above $139 will invalidate the bearish thesis.

Axie Infinity price has been on a steady downtrend since November 6 after multiple failed attempts to rally higher. This correction has pushed AXS below a crucial level and hints that a further downswing is likely.

Axie Infinity price to be available at discount

Axie Infinity price set up a swing high at $163 on October 29 and consolidated for a while. However, multiple attempts to breach past this barrier have failed, suggesting that the liquidity resting above these barriers was collected.

As a result, AXS has dropped 24% to where it currently trades, at $125. In doing so, Axie Infinity price has shattered the 50% retracement level at $129 and has ventured lower. However, investors can expect a relief bounce that either gets rejected at $129 or the $131 to $135 supply zone.

This inability to cross higher will be the final nail in Axie Infinity’s coffin, suggesting that AXS price will kick-start a 20% downswing to the range low at $102.

While this correction might seem straightforward, it is not. The support levels at $118 and $114 have been extremely resilient in the past and have supported the upswing. Therefore, market participants can expect Axie Infinity price to witness buying interests around these levels.

While things are looking rough for Axie Infinity price, a daily close above the $131 to $135 supply zone will indicate a willingness to move higher. While this move is bullish, an invalidation of the bearish thesis will arrive only if AXS price produces a daily close above $139.
