Vechain price has the potential to see a 3% rise if this critical barrier is broken

Vechain had a massive 14% price pump on November 9 hitting a high of $0.0118 and establishing an ascending parallel channel shortly after. The most critical resistance level is the upper boundary of this pattern.

Additionally, the MACD has turned bullish for the first time since November 9 which was followed by a 12% move. Bollinger Bands have squeezed significantly, another indicator that a breakout is nearby.

Despite the potential breakout of Vechain, the digital asset faces a robust resistance level at $0.0117 which coincides with the 200-SMA on the daily chart. VET also seems to be contained inside a descending parallel channel on the daily chart.

The 200-SMA coincides with the upper boundary, adding more strength to this resistance level. Rejection from that point can quickly push Vechain price towards the middle of the pattern at $0.01 and as low as $0.008.
