Polkadot (DOT) has seen a price increase in the daily timeframe as the crypto market soars. Some market watchers suggested the cryptocurrency is gearing up for a breakout, setting new targets for the short and mid-term timeframes.
Polkadot Breaks Out Of Falling Wedge Pattern
Polkadot has registered a 10.9% increase in the last week following the market’s performance. DOT jumped from the $4.32 support zone to the $4.53 mark before retracing, registering a 4.8% daily surge in the early hours of Tuesday.
The cryptocurrency also saw a 56% rise in market activity, recording a $259.3 million daily trading volume. This increase has made DOT retest the upper trendline of a falling wedge pattern.
Market analyst CryptoBull360 stated that Polkadot is “getting ready for a massive breakout” from the bullish pattern after a long consolidation period. DOT has been moving within the falling wedge for the past seven months, consolidating between $4-$4.8 since August’s Black Monday.
The analyst noted that the token had a strong bounce from the Point of Control (PoC) value zone, surging 11% in the last three days. Today’s jump saw the token break above the pattern’s upper trendline, momentarily sitting above it.
CryptoBull360 expects a retest of March highs if the token successfully breaks out of the falling wedge. To him, a 160% surge for the midterm is imminent, which would target the $11.46 yearly high.
Is DOT Preparing To Reclaim $20?
Crypto analyst Ali Martinez suggested that Polkadot could “be following Fantom’s footsteps.” Per the post, DOT’s chart looks similar to Fantom’s before its March performance.
Ahead of the Q1 rally, FTM rose two times to the upper range of its accumulation zone and retraced before its 263% bullish run toward its yearly high. If Polkadot were to follow, and its current pattern holds, DOT’s price could rise to $9.7 in Q4.
Following the surge, the cryptocurrency would face a pullback to the $6.5-$6.7 support zone before skyrocketing to $20 by Q1 2025, a level not seen since April 2022.
Despite the bullish forecasts, some investors remain cautious about Polkadot. A crypto trader noted that DOT followed Bitcoin’s lead like most of the market. The cryptocurrency surged to its daily high of $4.53 as BTC retested the $67,000 resistance level.
However, DOT quickly fell to Monday’s levels as BTC was rejected from its resistance zone. The trader questioned DOT’s 24-hour trend, stating, “BTC stops pumping, DOT rises a few percent, while most things don’t rise, as soon as it gets going, the entire market falls and DOT immediately loses everything it had previously gained.”
As of this writing, DOT is trading at $4.42, a 2.2% increase in the daily timeframe.
