*What The Chart Is Saying Right Now*
The 15-minute chart shows a textbook breakout.

*Key Live Stats:*
- *24h High*: $99.59 | *24h Low*: $92.12
- *24h Vol*: 201,879 AAVE / 19.26M USDT
- *MA60*: $96.82 — price just broke and closed above it. The white MA line is now sloping up.
- *Today*: +1.62% | *7 Days*: +5.09% | *30 Days*: +4.06%
*Bullish Case: Why Buyers Are Excited*
1. *Clean MA60 Break*: AAVE reclaimed the 60-period moving average at $96.82 with strong volume. In short-term trading, that’s often seen as a momentum shift.
2. *Higher Highs*: After the spike to $97.09, it pulled back to $96.90 then pushed again to $97.12. Buyers are defending dips.
3. *Short-Term Trend Flip*: +5.09% in 7 days and +4.06% in 30 days. After months of pain, AAVE is finally printing green candles.
4. *Volume Confirmation*: The breakout candle had the biggest green volume bar on the chart. This wasn’t a thin weekend fake-out — real money moved.
*Bearish Case: Why Sellers Aren’t Gone*
1. *Massive Long-Term Downtrend*: Zoom out and it hurts. AAVE is *-15.75%* in 90 days, *-54.27%* in 180 days, and *-50.08%* in 1 year. This +4.92% pump is small vs the damage from late 2025.
2. *$99.59 Resistance*: The 24h high is just $2.50 away. That level rejected price earlier. Many bagholders from 2025 are likely waiting to sell break-even there.
3. *Overextended Short-Term*: RSI isn’t visible here, but a +4.92% move in one day often leads to short-term pullbacks as traders take profit.
