What to know:
- XLM continues to wobble between $0.3027 support and $0.3160 resistance, like a toddler learning to walk-only with more numbers and less falling.
- A 62.1 million volume spike-180% above average-created a temporary illusion of excitement, followed by a cold splash of reality when prices didn’t skyrocket into the moon.
- Despite the promising buzz around Ripple-Stellar’s cozy humanitarian partnership, price action stubbornly clings to technical resistance at $0.3147-$0.3160 like a cat to its favorite sunbeam.
XLM had a mild temper tantrum Tuesday, dropping from $0.3137 to $0.3123 in a 24-hour period ending Oct. 23 at 14:00 UTC. The token moved within a narrow $0.0132 range (4.2%), which is the kind of volatility that makes you question your life choices but not enough to make you panic.
A massive 62.1 million volume spike-180% above average-at 21:00 on Oct. 22 triggered a selloff from $0.3081 to the all-important $0.3027, marking the lower boundary of this rather exciting and utterly unremarkable trading range.
Even though Stellar attempted a half-hearted rebound, it was met with the kind of resistance you’d expect from a grumpy bouncer at a nightclub. Prices edged back toward $0.3160 before forming a double-top pattern at $0.3147, signaling that maybe-just maybe-this party was winding down.
The final hour brought a fresh wave of selling pressure, with a breakdown below $0.3131 confirming that XLM was stuck in its range-bound funk and showing a bit of short-term weakness. It’s like trying to get out of a sticky hammock but only managing to swing back and forth hopelessly.
On the fundamentals side, there was some optimistic chatter about Ripple and Stellar teaming up to save the world with humanitarian payments. Analysts, like the ever-optimistic ProfRippl, noted that both were working with the International Rescue Committee-Ripple focusing on donations and Stellar on cash distribution. It’s heartwarming stuff. Too bad the price action isn’t as heartwarming as the cause.
