FLOKI – Is a 2024-style breakout coming soon for the memecoin?

• FLOKI’ price structure may be resembling its January 2024 breakout
• Is FLOKI’s current consolidation a setup for another explosive move?

Floki’s [FLOKI] price action has been mirroring its January 2024 breakout – A time when a prolonged consolidation led to a surge towards its $0.00030 all-time high.

In Q1 2024, the memecoin delivered a 640% rally, capitalizing on the market-wide uptrend. With the volume stabilizing and the RSI hovering near neutral now, is this the calm before another explosive rally?

Over the past ten days, FLOKI has traded between $0.0000900 and $0.0000100, while the MACD teetered on a bullish crossover.

However, since its post-election peak of $0.0002800, the memecoin has printed four consecutive lower lows – A sign of persistent bearish pressure.

With the price now down 66% from its peak, a decisive breakout remains elusive. Unless the memecoin sees a surge in buying momentum to invalidate this downtrend.

FLOKI’s fundamentals under scrutiny

Whale accumulation has remained steady despite broader market turbulence, with billions flowing into 1K–1M FLOKI wallets – Supporting its ongoing consolidation trend.

On the derivatives front, the Open Interest (OI) climbed by 6%, indicating renewed speculation. Meanwhile, trading volume surged by 104.19% to hit $387.41 million too. 

However, at press time, FLOKI’s 3% price drop appeared to be a long squeeze, raising the risk of further liquidations if buyers fail to absorb the sell pressure.

Despite this, steady whale accumulation and strong fundamentals hinted that the memecoin could be primed for an uptrend once market sentiment recovers. For the memecoin to replicate its explosive 2024 breakout, it must first clear critical resistance levels – Starting with $0.000133 in the near term. 

A successful reclaim could trigger a trend shift, but failure to do so might prolong the consolidation phase.
