Decentraland price is poised for an upleg after breaking above its descending trendline

Decentraland price broke out of the descending trendline drawn by connecting multiple high levels from mid-March on Wednesday and rose 1% on Thursday. At the time of writing, it continues trading up 1.5% at $0.291 on Friday.

If the trendline breakout level acts as support around $0.280, its weekly support level, MANA could rise to $0.312 before potentially rallying by 25% to revisit its July 27 high of $0.351.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart is trading above its neutral level of 50, and the Awesome Oscillator (AO) is approaching its neutral level of zero. Both indicators must trade above their respective neutral levels for the bullish momentum to be sustained.

Despite the bullish thesis signaled by both on-chain data and technical analysis, the outlook will shift to bearish if Decentraland's daily candlestick closes below the August 17 low of $0.258. This scenario could lead to a 16% crash to retest its low of $0.217 on August 5.
