The token has fallen 3% daily and 4% in the past week. Over the last month, XLM has dropped 11%, even as most of the crypto market posted gains in August.<\/p>\n<p>Crypto analyst Ali Martinez noted,<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cStellar $XLM still needs one more dip before the breakout to $1.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>His chart suggests the token is forming an inverse head and shoulders pattern, which often appears before a trend reversal.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Stellar <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24XLM&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">$XLM<\/a> still needs one more dip before the breakout to $1! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/pIyUOqGX2B\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/pIyUOqGX2B<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ali (@ali_charts) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ali_charts\/status\/1960121008276258993?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">August 25, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, the pattern shows a left shoulder earlier this year, a head in May and June, and a developing right shoulder through August. Support is near $0.36, aligned with the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level. A move down into this zone would complete the structure.<\/p>\n<p>If XLM slips below $0.36, the next level of support sits near $0.33. On the upside, the neckline is around $0.50. A confirmed <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/is-this-the-xlm-breakout-bulls-have-been-waiting-for\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">breakout<\/a> above this price could open targets at $0.62, $0.82, $0.94, and $1.10 based on Fibonacci projections.<\/p>\n<h2>Indicators Show Neutral Momentum<\/h2>\n<p>The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 44, slightly below the midpoint of 50. This suggests weaker momentum but not oversold conditions. A fall toward 30 would show heavier selling, while a push above 50 would indicate strength returning.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_410088\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-410088\" style=\"width: 2390px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/XLMUSDT_2025-08-26_10-04-29.png\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-410088\" src=\"http:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/XLMUSDT_2025-08-26_10-04-29.png\" alt=\"XLM price chart\" width=\"2390\" height=\"1294\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/XLMUSDT_2025-08-26_10-04-29.png 2390w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/XLMUSDT_2025-08-26_10-04-29-300x162.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/XLMUSDT_2025-08-26_10-04-29-1024x554.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/XLMUSDT_2025-08-26_10-04-29-768x416.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/XLMUSDT_2025-08-26_10-04-29-1536x832.png 1536w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/XLMUSDT_2025-08-26_10-04-29-2048x1109.png 2048w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/XLMUSDT_2025-08-26_10-04-29-50x27.png 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2390px) 100vw, 2390px\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-410088\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: TradingView<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Meanwhile, the MACD reading shows the line at -0.0035 and the signal line at -0.0051, with the histogram at 0.0016.
