Avax Price Prediction: Bullish Pattern and RSI Suggests Price Might Reach $98.48

Summary:
• A bullish ascending triangle and RSI divergence suggest Avax might turn higher. But what is needed to trigger this bullish scenario?

In early to mid-December, AVAXUSD tried to step up and formed a new all-time high of $127.45. Since then the AVAX price started to move down. There is an important swing low formed at $98.41 on December 30. After that, the market went up again and formed a major swing high at $117.44 on January 2, 2022.

From $117.44 the price came crashing, and lost almost 32.1% and stopped at a support level of $80.00. The level $80.00 is a key support zone as we can see the price touched it four times previously in early to mid-Dec.

The price from here can see a short-term up move as recently it broke the previous swing high formed at $96.76 on 7th Jan. The price has started to form an ascending triangle which after a successful formation and breakout can move the price higher. The price needs to trade above 91.94 for the ascending triangle pattern to become active. 

Also, on the RSI line, we could see the hidden bearish divergence that signifies the market could reverse higher soon. However, traders and investors must wait for extra confirmation such as a break of the $91.94 resistance zone. If the price breaks the R1, it may run till the next resistance zone at $98.42.
