Despite the long-term breakout, the price failed to sustain its upward movement above a critical horizontal resistance area.
AVAX Breaks out From 455-Day Resistance
The weekly timeframe technical analysis shows that the AVAX price has fallen under a descending resistance trend line since August 2022. The trendline led to a low of $8.60.
During the decrease, AVAX seemingly broke down from a long-term horizontal support area in place since the start of 2021.
However, the ensuing increase caused a reclaim of this area, rendering the previous drop as only a deviation.
Two weeks ago, the AVAX price broke out from the descending resistance trend line, which had been in place for 455 days.

AVAX Price Prediction: Retracement Before Breakout?
The daily timeframe technical analysis gives a bearish AVAX price reading in the short term. This is because of the price action and the RSI.
The daily RSI has generated a bearish divergence (green). This occurs when a momentum decrease accompanies a price increase. It often leads to downward movements.
The price action shows a deviation above the $21.50 horizontal resistance area (red circle). These deviations are often followed by significant downward movements.
If that occurs, the AVAX price can fall by 30% to the 0.618 Fib retracement support level at $14.80.
Despite this bearish AVAX price prediction, a close above the $21.50 resistance area can lead to a 50% increase to the next closest resistance at $30.
