Following June’s second-week sell-off, the APE/USDT pair bounced back from the $3.1 mark on June 15th. The resulting rally hit a high of $5.57, registering a gain of 80%. Furthermore, this recovery rally with new higher highs showed the formation of an inverted flag pattern.

On July 10th, the sellers breached the support trendline of the pattern, indicating the resumption of the prevailing downtrend. The breakdown rally reached the $4.18 mark and reverted to retest the flipped resistance.

 If the APE price sustains below the trendline, the selling pressure may escalate and pull the price 30% down to $3.1- $3.

However, volume activity during the retest phase is higher than the $0.4 breakdown, indicating weakness in bearish commitment. Thus, if buyers push the APE price above the trendline, the replenished bullish momentum may drive the price above $5.2.
