The chart shows XLM is trading below a descending resistance trendline that has capped movement for weeks. Sellers consistently block upward momentum, keeping the price weak. Analysts suggest the market could witness one final dip before bulls gather strength to attempt a breakout toward $0.50.
Fibonacci retracement levels provide crucial guidance on support zones. The 0.786 Fib at $0.3758 stands out as immediate support. A deeper drop could reach $0.35–$0.36, aligning with the 1.0 Fib at $0.3438, which will likely act as an accumulation zone before a potential reversal.
For bullish momentum to gain traction, XLM must close above the descending trendline and reclaim the 0.618 Fib level at $0.4030. Resistance checkpoints at $0.4232, $0.4445, and $0.4723 remain critical. Sustained moves beyond these levels could fuel an extended rally toward $0.50.
The chart shows monthly percentage changes for 2024 and 2025, with gains in green and losses in red. In 2025, January surged by +24.6%, but February dropped by 30.9%, and losses dominated the first half. July delivered a strong +68.7% rally, followed by a -12.1% fall in August and a mild +9.09% rebound in September.
Performance in 2024 was equally volatile. It plunged by 15.1% in January, then regained ground in February and March, posting +11.4% and +15.6%. It slipped by 23.9% in April, then soared by +470.3% in November before plummeting by 36.9% in December. Stellar’s two years again showcase its extremely volatile and yo-yo-like
Despite recent weakness, there is very bullish sentiment in the community. With 170.1K votes, nearly 85% of votes lean bullish, validating investors’ optimism of a bullish reversal. Even historical data shows extreme volatility, and 2025 witnesses large monthly spikes.
Such volatility, paired with strong community sentiment, would suggest, after temporary corrections, the long-term future of XLM is on the upside. Experts estimate a final correction will open the way up for a significant change of trend, foreshadowing a breakout up towards $0.50 and beyond.
