XLM Price Prediction: Target $0.13On March 29, XLM broke above a rising price channel, around $0.10 that the cryptocurrency has been contained within, since the start of the year.
A subsequent retest of the channel held firm on March 30, and XLM has since rallied toward the $0.11 area, marking a gain of close to 10%.

This price target also coincides nicely with the former key swing highs from August and October 2022, both located slightly above the $0.13 area.
However, if a false breakout above the mentioned price channel was to take place, then XLM could fall back toward the $0.09 support area.
