Stellar’s Lumen Price Support

Stellar’s Lumen fell by 1.13% on Wednesday. Reversing a 0.8% rise from Tuesday, Stellar’s Lumen ended the day at $0.07774.

Tracking the broader market, Stellar’s Lumen rallied to a mid-morning intraday high $0.08023 before hitting reverse. The early in the day high saw Stellar’s Lumen break through the first major resistance level at $0.0799 to come within range of the second major resistance level at $0.0813.

The reversal saw Stellar’s Lumen slide to a mid-day intraday low $0.07632 to call on support at the first major support level at $0.0766.

Bearish sentiment across the broader market was evident through the afternoon, with Stellar’s Lumen unable to break back through to $0.0800 levels. An afternoon high 0.07812 was as bullish as it got as Stellar’s Lumen struggled at $0.077 levels through most of the day.

The extended bearish trend was reaffirmed through the first half of the week. Stellar’s Lumen continued to fall well short of the 23.6% FIB Retracement Level of $0.1310. For the bulls, the late September swing hi $0.305 remains an even more distant bull target, following 4 weeks in the red out of the last 6.

At the time of writing, Stellar’s Lumen was down by 0.53% to 0.07732. Moves through the early hours saw Stellar’s Lumen fall from a morning high $0.07798 to a morning low $0.07717 before steadying. The day’s major support and resistance levels were left untested early on.

For the day ahead, a move back through to $0.078 levels would support another run at the first major resistance level at $0.0799 to bring $0.080 levels into play before any pullback. Barring a broad-based crypto rally, we would expect Stellar’s Lumen to come up short of $0.081 levels, with Wednesday’s high $0.08023 likely to cap the upside through the day.

Failure to move back through to $0.078 levels could see Stellar’s Lumen pullback deeper into the red. A fall through the morning low $0.07717 would bring $0.076 levels and the first major support level at $0.076 into play before any recovery.

Barring a broad-based crypto sell-off, we would expect Stellar’s Lumen to avoid sub-$0.075 levels.
