• Avalanche (AVAX) price pares initial gains on Wednesday.
• AVAX prepares for the next leg up with an eye on the $100 mark.
• The U.S dollar index gains above 97.0 amid risk aversion.

AVAX looks for signs of bullish continuation

On the daily chart, Avalanche (AVAX) price trades inside the ‘Symmetrical triangle’ pattern. The price remained pressured near the descending trend line of the triangle. However, AVAX is riding along the bullish sloping line marking the crucial demand zone extending from $53.0 to $64.53.

A resurgence in buying pressure would further determine the upper breakout of the symmetrical triangle pattern. A daily candlestick above $90.0 will set the upside directional basis for the asset.

Next, market participants will keep their eyes on the psychological $100.0 level.

On the flip side, if the price breaks the session’s low then it will move toward the $72.0 that coincides with the ascending trend line.  Furthermore, a spike in sell order would pierce below the trend line with a revisit to $64.53.
