Breakout Could Propel Price Above $1.26

Key Insights:

• Aster forms a descending wedge pattern after rejecting $1.20 resistance for the second time.
• $34.1M whale long at $1.19 shows strong commitment despite current price trading below entry.
• RSI holds long-term support while traders watch $1.05–$1.10 zone for breakout or breakdown.

Aster (ASTER) is trading in a tight range after falling from its recent high of nearly $1.20. The asset has now formed a descending wedge pattern, a structure that often leads to bullish reversals when supported by strong volume and price stability.

The live price of ASTER is $1.09, down 5.33% in the last 24 hours. The trading volume for the same period stands at $585 million. Market participants are closely watching the $1.05–$1.10 support zone, which could play a key role in determining the price direction.

Descending Wedge Develops as Key Resistance Levels Hold

Aster recently rejected the $1.20 zone for the second time. This zone has acted as a ceiling in past trading sessions. According to analyst Ardi, since losing its long-term trendline, the price has recorded lower highs and lower lows. These moves have now created a descending wedge pattern on the chart.

Price action has been compressing with reduced volatility as the support at the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level ($1.05) has been holding. This is considered as a healthy pullback level in technical setups unless it fails. A breakdown below $1.05 could expose Aster to deeper price tests near $1.00.

During the latest bounce, Aster failed to recover above the 38.2% Fibonacci level at around $1.18. Sellers appear to be defending this range, keeping the asset within the current wedge. The $1.18 to $1.20 region remains a strong resistance that bulls need to clear for any continued upward momentum. If achieved, price targets between $1.26 and $1.41 may come into play based on previous reaction highs.

RSI Near Long-Term Support as Whale Activity Draws Attention

As indicated by Ardi, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is sitting near a long-term support level. This level has held during past corrections, even if the market crashed on October 10 did not bring RSI this low. Some analysts suggest this could indicate buyer exhaustion or a potential bounce. 

Whale Activity Signals Strong Confidence in Current Price Levels, Indicating Potential for Continued Market Stability

Based on BeingInvested data, it shows that a high-balance wallet is holding a large long position in Aster. The wallet has a $34.1 million long open with 5x leverage and no short positions. The current position value is $4.74 million, with the entry price recorded at $1.19.

This move has drawn attention from market watchers. “Whale moves all in,” noted a trading account, suggesting strong conviction. The market is now waiting for direction as Aster approaches the apex of the wedge. Traders are closely monitoring the support zone levels for the next potential breakout or breakdown.
