In recent months, the DOT price chart has shown the formation of bullish technical patterns. From August to November 2023, Polkadot formed a descending triangle pattern, which led to a breakout and a strong rally, peaking near $11.00 in December, reported macro analyst FLASH.

Following this peak, a descending wedge pattern emerged, with the current price consolidating at $6.217. also, the key Fibonacci retracement levels for DOT price to watch are 0.618% at $6.772 and 0.786% at $5.434.

Recent price activity indicates a bounce from the lower trend line and the 0.786 Fibonacci level, hinting at a potential bullish reversal. However, confirmation of this trend is awaited. To sustain a bullish trajectory, the DOT price must breach a critical resistance level at $7.545, marked as a horizontal green line on the chart. A breakout above this level could pave the way for a rally toward a projected target of $14,605, as suggested by a bullish green arrow.
