Avalanche (AVAX) is near its critical support level, a critical point that will decide the next big move of the cryptocurrency. The short-term price momentum of the AVAX may slow down or continue to gain momentum depending on its performance against the critical support level.

At the time of writing, Avalanche is trading at $12.09, with a trading volume of $505.56 million and a market capitalization of $5.25 billion. The AVAX has recorded an increase of 3.47% over the last 24 hours, indicating that the token is gaining traction among investors.

Avalanche Approaches Key Decision Zone

As indicated by analysts, Avalanche is about to hit a key decision area. Crypto analyst GorkemCrypto highlighted that the long-term trend line, which limits the rise of the price, is still in place, but the strong support area below has managed to hold for a number of years. This has made it a key area for AVAX in the short term.

“This is an important area where the momentum of AVAX may either stagnate or may start building the next leg upwards,” GorkemCrypto noted. This level of support has been a base several times, and this shows just how important it is.

AVAX Struggles Near Key Resistance

Another analyst, GainMuse, also commented on the current situation of AVAX. GainMuse said that the current situation of AVAX is that it is experiencing a descending pressure. “Every bounce looks temporary, almost like a trap, before the next downward move takes place,” GainMuse said.

Resistance levels have been identified between $12.05 and $12.20, and the short-term target is at $11.55. These are the levels that those monitoring Avalanche closely will be looking out for, and it is these levels that will determine whether the token is able to gain momentum or fall back.

AVAX, which is currently in a position close to a well-established support level, is closely monitored. According to analysts, a strong move in either direction is imminent, and this is a good time for investors looking for short-term prospects.
