Sandbox price positioned perfectly for a 30% gain

  • Sandbox price has bounced off a launching pad, signaling the start of an uptrend.
  • Investors can expect SAND to rally 30% to $5.25 and collect liquidity resting above it.
  • A four-hour candlestick close below $3.49 will invalidate the bullish thesis.

Sandbox price has bounced off two crucial support levels, suggesting a reversal is around the corner. The run-up that evolves from this barrier will likely propel SAND to slice through immediate hurdles and collect liquidity.

Sandbox price prepares for liftoff

Sandbox price created a range that extends from $3.49 to $4.88 as it rallied 40% between February 4 and 9. Since creating a local top, SAND has retraced to the high probability reversal zone, the 70.5% retracement level at $3.90.

This area is a sweet spot that often reverses the retracement and pushes the asset back to the range high or beyond it. As Sandbox price retests the 62% retracement level, investors can position themselves long at the current price – $4.08.

Market participants can expect a 19% ascent to retest the range high at $4.88, the first hurdle. Crossing this blockade will open the path for Sandbox price to $5.24 to collect the liquidity resting above it. Investors can book profits at the levels mentioned above.

In case the bullish momentum falls short, Sandbox price can rely on the sidelined buyers to come in at the 79% retracement level at $3.78. Here, buyers can attempt another run-up. 

Only if Sandbox price produces a four-hour candlestick close below the range low at $3.49, it will create a lower low and invalidate the bullish thesis. In this situation, SAND could revisit the $3.31 support level.
