Avalanche (AVAX) May Shed Recent Gains Due to Low Demand

Avalanche (AVAX) broke above the upper line of a descending channel on May 13, and its price has since climbed by almost 10%.

However, this rally might be shortlived, as on-chain data suggest a decline in the demand for the altcoin in the last week.

AVAX Price Prediction: Weakening Uptrend Puts Token at Risk

Despite AVAX’s price growth since it broke above the upper line of its descending channel, its Aroon Up Line has trended downward. 

This indicator identifies an asset’s trend strength and potential reversal points in its price movement. When the Aroon Up line is close to zero, the uptrend is weak, and the most recent high was reached a long time ago. This can indicate a potential trend reversal.

At press time, AVAX’s Aroon Up Line was 28.57%.

Also, readings from the Parabolic Stop and Reverse (SAR) indicator put its dot above AVAX’s price at press time. 

This indicator identifies an asset’s potential trend direction and reversal points. When its dotted lines rest on an asset’s price, it is a bearish sign, indicating that the asset’s price may initiate a decline. 

If the bulls fail to sustain AVAX’s current rally and the bears regain full market control, the token’s price might plummet to $34.99.

However, if this projection is invalidated and adequate liquidity enters the market, AXAX’s price may rise toward $37.45.
