XLM Nears Critical $0.27 Support Level – Is This the Bottom Before the Next Rally?
Stellar's XLM tests make-or-break territory as bears push price toward $0.27.
Blood in the streets? Not quite—but crypto's favorite 'stablecoin bridge' is looking shaky.
Correction mode: XLM's 30-day chart reads like a hedge fund manager's apology letter to investors.
Key level to watch: A hold above $0.27 could springboard the next leg up. Break below? Grab popcorn.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin maximalists smirk while altcoin traders recycle the same 'this time it's different' playbook.
The token continues to trade near the bottom of a historically reactive demand area, drawing attention from traders monitoring potential support around $0.27. The extended cooling phase has increased market curiosity about whether the Stellar price prediction outlook could shift toward a stabilization or rebound phase.
Stellar Price Prediction Shows Persistent Cooling Phase
Crypto analyst Umair crypto highlighted that Stellar’s behavior historically mirrors XRP, showing sharp impulsive rallies followed by long correction phases. Past surges such as $0.08 → $0.50 (5x) and $0.22 → $0.52 (+130%) underline this boom-and-bust cycle.

The current consolidation period, however, has lasted over 110 days, far longer than the usual 40-day cooldown seen after earlier rallies. Umair noted that this extended phase could be part of a 135-day cyclical pattern, implying roughly 20–25 more days of sideways or downward action before a potential shift.
If the pattern holds, the coin may revisit the $0.20–$0.22 support range, which has historically triggered strong rebounds. Still, Umair warned that this area has already supported three major rallies, meaning its strength could be weakening.
Market data shows weak Momentum Near $0.27
At press time, XLM trades around $0.273, marking a 0.05% increase in the past 24 hours. The asset’s market cap stands at $8.79 billion, with $189.7 million in daily trading volume, according to BraveNewCoin data.

On the technical front, the daily chart shows the coin holding NEAR the lower Bollinger Band at $0.272, signaling ongoing bearish momentum. The middle band (basis) near $0.307 acts as short-term resistance, while the upper band at $0.342 defines the next bullish target should buying pressure return.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) currently reads 32.46, approaching oversold territory. This suggests sellers remain dominant, but an RSI dip below 30 could trigger a short-term bounce. The RSI’s moving average (38.54) remains above the current reading, confirming that momentum is still weakening.
Technical Eyes Key Reaction Zone at $0.20–$0.22
Despite bearish sentiment, the narrowing Bollinger Bands imply declining volatility, which often precedes a decisive move. If the token can hold above $0.27 and RSI starts to rise, analysts foresee a potential recovery toward $0.30–$0.31.

Failure to sustain this level, however, could expose the token to a deeper pullback, potentially retesting the $0.20–$0.22 zone — a region that has acted as a launchpad in prior cycles.
Traders are advised to monitor RSI divergence, volume spikes, and broader market sentiment (especially Bitcoin’s trajectory and XLM–XRP correlation) for early signs of reversal.
