• AXL coin was making steady progress after breaching the 4-month range’s highs.
• The next targets are the psychological $1 level and beyond.

Axelar [AXL] was up by 52.8% within two weeks. It rose by 12.35% in the past 24 hours but saw a sizeable dip recently, making its 1-day gains worth just over 5%.

The trading volume of the $700 million market cap token was up 78% in the past 24 hours. This influx of activity is due to bullish expectations. A retest of the $0.872 level as support could be an ideal buying opportunity.

Axelar broke out of a range formation that has been in play since mid-June. The 4-month range reached from $0.434 to $0.738. The trading of the past two weeks saw AXL break out past the highs and retest them as support.

The OBV was rising to show increased buying pressure. The indicator has been trending upward for a month now, and because of this, the chances of a sustained move higher are better.

The daily RSI did not show a divergence yet but was close to the overbought zone. Traders can keep an eye on the momentum indicator for early signs of a price pullback.

The $0.872 and $1.1 are the next resistance levels that could stall the bulls. Based on the strength of the buyers during and after the breakout, it is likely that AXL coin prices would grow beyond $1.1.
