AAVE Technical Outlook: Navigating the September Selloff
The cryptocurrency markets continue their volatile dance, and AAVE has become a prime example of how quickly sentiment can shift in digital assets. After weeks of consolidation and hope for upward momentum, AAVE has decisively broken below critical support levels, painting a clearly bearish picture across all timeframes. What we witnessed yesterday was not just another minor correction, but a structural breakdown that demands our attention and respect.
Looking at where we stand today, AAVE has lost the crucial $275 support level that many traders were watching, and the token is now testing the psychological $265 area. The technical damage is extensive, with all major indicators flashing red warning signals. The MACD has turned decisively bearish across all timeframes, while RSI readings have plunged deep into oversold territory, particularly on the shorter timeframes where we’re seeing readings in the teens and low twenties.
The Directional Movement Index tells a compelling story of bearish dominance, with the negative directional indicator (-DI) significantly outpacing the positive directional indicator (+DI) across all timeframes. However, what’s particularly noteworthy is the relatively low ADX readings on the 12-hour chart, suggesting we may still be in the early stages of this bearish trend rather than at its climax. This observation has proven crucial in our approach to position management.
Yesterday’s analysis proved remarkably accurate in identifying the bearish momentum, though the speed and intensity of the decline exceeded even our bearish expectations. The break below $275 happened swiftly, and the failure to find meaningful support until the mid-260s demonstrates just how quickly sentiment can deteriorate in cryptocurrency markets. Our cautious approach toward immediate short positions has been vindicated, as the deeply oversold conditions created significant volatility that could have stopped out aggressive positions.
What we foresee in the coming sessions is a critical test of the current support zone around $260-$265. If this level fails to hold, we could see an extension of the decline toward the $250 psychological level, which would represent a significant breakdown from the recent trading range. However, the deeply oversold conditions suggest that any further decline might be met with technical buying, creating potential for a relief bounce.
The key to navigating this environment successfully lies in patience and discipline rather than aggressive trend-chasing. While the bearish momentum is undeniable, the extreme oversold readings across multiple timeframes suggest that waiting for a relief rally in the RSI before considering short positions would be the prudent approach. We’re looking for the RSI to move back above its moving average on the 6-hour and 12-hour timeframes as confirmation that the initial oversold bounce has occurred and the trend can resume safely. This methodical approach respects both the dominant bearish trend and the reality of oversold conditions, positioning us to capitalize on the next leg of the move rather than getting caught in the current volatility.
