- After its latest breakout, AAVE showed strong bullish momentum over the past week
- Traders should watch the $142.68 resistance closely, as a break above this level will signal sustained upside
Aave (AAVE) recently saw a steep rally, breaking above key resistance levels and flipping them to support after recording a 55% jump in just over a week.
However, with the broader market sentiment still in the ‘Fear’ zone at press time, the question is whether the bulls can sustain this momentum.

During the first week of August, AAVE witnessed a classic rising wedge breakdown after failing to break above the $116 resistance (now support) level.
However, the recent rebound from the $89 support level has set the stage for buyers to change the trend. This rally pushed the price significantly higher, with AAVE trading at $135.68 at press time. The price then hit the resistance near the $142.68-level, which could be a crucial barrier for the bulls to overcome. Here, it’s worth noting that the recent surge was accompanied by strong volume, but the price entered a relatively high volatility zone.
The Volume Profile Visible Range (VPVR) indicated strong resistance around the $135-$142 range, which coincided with the previous high-volume rally. Failing to break above this level could result in a pullback towards the $116 support level.
After its most-recent buying rally, the technical indicators turned overbought. So, a potential correction could be plausible, especially with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) reversing from the 75-zone.
Key levels to watch
The immediate resistance to watch seemed to be at $142.68. If AAVE can break and sustain itself above this level, the next target could be around $150. On the downside, if the price fails to hold above $129, it could revisit the $116 support.
Since the altcoin recently flipped the $129 level from resistance to support, we could see a potential re-test of this support, followed by a consolidation phase.
The overall volume fell by 33.05% over the past 24 hours while the Open Interest dropped by 6.60%. This suggested that some traders have been taking profits or closing positions after the rally.
The long/short ratio for the last 24 hours, at press time, was 0.9889, indicating nearly balanced sentiment with a slight bearish edge.

Finally, the AAVE/USDT long/short ratio on Binance was notably bearish at 0.2758, This could mean that some traders are expecting a pullback. Investors should also monitor broader market trends and any significant news that could affect AAVE’s price action in the coming days.
