AAVE failed to hold the $100 mark and is now sliding toward a critical support level at $91.69. The token's momentum indicator has gone flat, leaving traders watching the next 72 hours as a decisive window that could either confirm a buying opportunity or open the door to deeper losses.
Why $100 mattered
The $100 level had acted as a psychological and technical barrier. When AAVE approached it, buyers stepped in briefly, but the push stalled. Sellers regained control, and the price reversed. Since then, AAVE has been drifting lower, losing about 5% in the past 24 hours. The current price hovers near $93, with $91.69 as the next major floor.
MACD flatlines — what that means
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator, which tracks trend strength and direction, is showing no clear signal. The line is essentially flat, meaning neither bulls nor bears have seized momentum. In technical analysis, a flat MACD often precedes a breakout — but the direction remains unknown. For AAVE, this indecision amplifies the importance of the next few days.
The 72-hour window
Traders are focused on the three-day stretch ahead. If AAVE can hold above $91.69 and bounce, the rejection at $100 could be written off as a temporary pause. A break below that support, however, would likely trigger stop-losses and accelerate selling. The next major level below $91.69 sits around $85, a zone that last saw activity in early March.
What traders are watching
Volume data will be key. A spike in buying volume near $91.69 would suggest accumulation. Continued low volume or a volume surge on a breakdown would point to further weakness. No major protocol updates or market-wide catalysts are expected in the immediate term, so the price action is largely technical.
The coming days will show whether the $91.69 level holds or gives way. For now, AAVE remains in a tight range with no clear direction.
