The aforementioned range extended from $0.0824 to $0.096. On 9 and 10 March, Stellar Lumens saw a heavy wave of selling and fell to $0.075, but it had rebounded back above $0.082 by 14 March. This suggested that the drop was a result of extreme fear, but the quick rally gave bears no time to assert themselves.

The OBV has been on a slow uptrend since mid-February. This accelerated in the past two weeks and highlighted the strong demand for Stellar Lumens. The RSI on the four-hour chart leaped to 77 to show hefty bullish momentum. A pullback could occur, but it was not mandated just because the RSI is in overbought territory.

However, in the event of a pullback, the $0.096-$0.099 area will offer bulls a good buying opportunity. This was the resistance that had remained unbroken from November till recently. A drop below $0.09 would be necessary to shift the bias back toward bearish if an XLM pullback fell beneath $0.096.
