BNB Faces Strong Resistance at $640—Can a Breakout Rally Push It to $672?

Binance (BNB)

Binance Coin (BNB) is witnessing increased volatility, with its price experiencing an intraday pullback of 1.72%. Currently, BNB trades at $617, recording an impressive 11.39% return over the past seven days. However, despite this short-term recovery, technical indicators hint at a potential deeper correction. Could BNB’s price retrace further to $570? Let’s analyze the market trends.

BNB Price Struggles at $640 Resistance

The 4-hour chart reveals that BNB has staged a strong V-shaped recovery from the $531 level, breaking through a local resistance trendline. However, bullish momentum is facing stiff resistance at the crucial $640 supply zone, leading to a consolidation phase followed by a slight pullback.

At present, BNB’s price is testing the 50% Fibonacci retracement level at $617. A bearish crossover in the MACD and signal lines, coupled with the resurgence of negative histograms, indicates weakening bullish momentum. Despite this, the supertrend indicator maintains a bullish support line at $601.9, suggesting that buyers remain active.

The formation of three consecutive bearish candles reflects selling pressure, though the lower wick on the recent candle suggests strong buying interest at the 50% Fibonacci level. If volatility persists, BNB could test the psychological $600 mark in the near term.

BNB Chain Gains Traction

Despite fears of a pullback, the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) continues to show strong growth. A recent tweet by OKSE founder Elja Boom highlights key metrics reinforcing the bullish case for BNB:

  • BSC ranks #1 in 24-hour DEX trading volume.
  • Total Value Locked (TVL) has increased by 7% week-over-week.
  • PancakeSwap, built on BSC, is now the top DEX by revenue over the past 24 hours.
  • Increased bridging activity, particularly from Ethereum to BSC.

Currently, BSC’s TVL stands at $5.334 billion, reflecting a recovering DeFi ecosystem.

BNB Price Outlook: Key Levels to Watch

If network growth continues, demand for BNB could surge, pushing its price higher. A breakout above $640 could confirm a bullish trend, with Fibonacci levels suggesting potential targets at $672 and $717. However, failure to hold key support levels could see BNB retesting $595 and, in a worst-case scenario, $570.
