Despite the retracement, AAVE was still bullish in the short term. This was highlighted by the Relative Strength Index (RSI) staying above the neutral 50, despite dipping out of the overbought zone. This reiterated the strong buying pressure still available on the higher timeframes.
Similarly, capital inflows stayed positive with the Chaikin Money Flow’s (CMF) reading of +0.15.
Based on the price action and on-chart indicators, buyers can anticipate a quick rebound with profit targets at $83 to $85. On the flip side, if the bullish defense at $77 falters, sellers could take advantage of further dips with targets at $70 to $72.

However, the Open Interest (OI) continued to decline which showed uncertainty in the current price rebound. Similarly, the spot CVD dipped to signal wavering demand.
As such, traders should wait for a bullish candle close at the $77 support on the higher timeframes before entering long positions.
