Investors Should Watch Stacks On These Levels
STX retains some of its momentum, breaking any short term possibility of a reversal as it breaks through $2.02 in the short term. This price action nets the bulls some serious gains, but this triumph might only be temporary as the bulls lose momentum to maintain a steady trajectory.
The relative strength index (RSI) of the token suggests that the bulls may encounter a wall around $2.2 in the short term, possibly letting the bears gain strength equaling the current bullishness. A movement like this will keep the token’s price stable, possibly giving the bulls enough time and room to maneuver upwards in the medium term.

If STX remains at its current support level of $2.02, we might see a surge upward in the coming days; that’s if the the pullback the market is currently experiencing to flip bullish. However, if the bulls fail to hold this position for a medium term movement, the bears might pull the token towards $1.885 or lower if they build up enough momentum.
