Celestia’s (TIA) price has shown remarkable recovery after the February 3 crypto market sell-off, forming higher lows and breaking a short-term resistance trend line. However, the altcoin remains significantly below its all-time high, raising questions about its long-term bullish prospects.
TIA’s Struggle to Overcome Key Resistance Levels
Since reaching its peak of $18.53 in January 2024, TIA has suffered an 81% decline, bottoming out at $2.35 on February 3. Despite the bounce, the price has failed to reclaim the crucial $4.30 support level, which has now turned into resistance. This resistance zone aligns with the long-term descending trend line, making it a pivotal level for trend reversal.
Technical indicators remain bearish. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is below 50 and declining, while the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) remains negative. These signals suggest that the recent rally might be short-lived unless TIA decisively breaks above resistance.
Short-Term Recovery Offers Hope
On the daily chart, TIA’s recent breakout from a descending resistance trend line on February 20 indicates potential short-term bullish momentum. The altcoin validated this breakout five days later, with the RSI crossing above 50 and the MACD showing signs of a positive trend shift.
If the upward movement continues, the next resistance level to watch is $5.25, marked by the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement level and a horizontal resistance area. A breakout above this could set TIA on course toward the $6.10-$6.90 range, coinciding with the 0.5-0.618 Fibonacci resistance levels.
Is a Trend Reversal Possible?
Despite the short-term optimism, the overall market structure leans bearish. Analysts suggest that the recent rebound could be part of a corrective A-B-C wave structure rather than a true reversal. A rejection at key resistance levels could push TIA towards new lows, with the next major support at $0.42 based on Fibonacci projections.
For a confirmed trend reversal, TIA must secure a decisive weekly close above the long-term descending resistance trend line. Until then, caution remains warranted as the bearish pressure continues to loom over Celestia’s price trajectory.
