This Morning

At the time of writing, Stellar’s Lumen was up by 2.08% to $0.071712. A mixed start to the day saw Stellar’s Lumen slide to an early morning low $0.067756 before finding support.

Stellar’s Lumen fell through the first major support level at $0.06840 before rebounding to a mid-morning high $0.071712.

Stellar’s Lumen broke through the first major resistance level at $0.0715 on the rebound.

For the day ahead

Stellar’s Lumen would need to hold onto $0.0710 levels to support a breakout from the first major resistance level at $0.0715.

A morning breakthrough to $0.0718 levels would bring the second major resistance level at $0.07270 into play before any pullback.

We would expect Stellar’s Lumen to come up short of $0.0730 levels, however, in the event of an extended rally.

Failure to hold onto $0.0710 levels could see Stellar’s Lumen join the broader market in the red. A fall through to $0.06950 would bring the first major support level at $0.06840 into play before any recovery.

Stellar’s Lumen should steer well clear of the second major support level at $0.0665 in the event of a reversal.
