XTZ chart by Tradingview XTZ future movementThe nearest target for XTZ price action is the ATH level at $8.42. However, even a daily close above the $7.58 area, which is the top of the body of the highest daily candle, would be a bullish signal.
The next targets are determined using the external Fib retracement. After a possible breakthrough of the ATH, XTZ will target $10.14 and $11.04 levels at the 1.272 and 1.414 Fib retracement. If these are broken through, the next resistance levels are at $12.33 and $14.75, which correspond to the external retracement of 1.618 and 2 Fib.
XTZ chart by TradingviewThe short-term 4-hour chart shows an aggressively rising parallel channel. At the same time, we see a clear short-term resistance level around $6.20, which has been turned into support (green rectangle).
Currently, the price is near the median of the channel, which has acted as a resistance since September 11. If XTZ manages to break through this resistance line and validate it as support, the next few days could bring a new all-time high.
XTZ chart by TradingviewIf, on the other hand, the median is still respected as resistance, then the price will return to the support line of the channel, which is currently located around $7. On the other hand, if a breakdown from the parallel channel occurs, the aforementioned $6.20 level will serve as short-term support.
