According to crypto analyst Ali, Polygon (MATIC), the native token of the Polygon network, an Ethereum layer-2 scaling solution, has been consolidating in a multi-year symmetrical triangular pattern.
This chart pattern suggests that the price might be building up for a potential breakout, which might result in a 90% upside move for MATIC.
Ali mentioned in a tweet that Polygon was exhibiting promising signs from a long-term perspective. He also stated that the prevailing pattern for Polygon appears to be a multi-year symmetrical triangle.
A symmetrical triangle is a chart pattern that forms when the price achieves lower highs and higher lows, resulting in two converging trend lines. The pattern typically represents a period of indecision and uncertainty on the market, with buyers and sellers evenly matched. The pattern is considered neutral until a breakout occurs, which often occurs when the price hits the apex of the triangle or at the point where the trend lines intersect.
According to Ali, if MATIC can maintain a close above $0.96, it might herald the start of a bull rally, with a potential target of $1.73. If this pattern breakout holds, a rise to $1.73 indicates an 89.56% increase over current levels.
At the time of writing, MATIC was up 5.21% in the last 24 hours to $0.97. The token has likewise gained 7% weekly.
