Tezos Price Prediction: XTZ gears up for a move towards $5 if this level cracks

  • Tezos price is contained inside an ascending parallel channel on the 12-hour chart.
  • XTZ bulls have just defended a crucial support level and aim for higher highs.
  • Tezos has established a robust and steady uptrend and can continue to rise higher.

Tezos has been inside a significant uptrend since December 23, 2020, reaching a high of $3.39 on January 23, 2021. After a 22% correction in the past week, the digital asset seems ready for another leg up.

Tezos price must break this level to aim for $5

On the 12-hour chart, Tezos has established an ascending parallel channel and bulls just defended the lower trendline located at $2.7, which also coincides with the 50-SMA support level.

Tezos price exploded by 17% towards $3.08 and aims to hit the upper trendline of the pattern at $3.55. A breakout above this point gives us a price target of 36% at $5. This is calculated using the height of the parallel channel.

However, it seems that Tezos price got slightly rejected from the middle trendline of the parallel channel. Losing the critical support level at $2.7 would result in XTZ collapsing down to $1.73.
