The broader cryptocurrency market continues its steady rebound after last week’s sharp volatility, which dragged Ethereum (ETH) down to $2,622 before recovering above the $3,000 mark today. This improving sentiment is now helping several altcoins regain momentum — including Stellar (XLM).
XLM is trading with modest gains today, but the real story lies beneath the surface. A key technical formation on the chart is hinting that a far bigger move may be developing soon.

Inverse Head and Shoulders Pattern in Play
Over the past several weeks, XLM has formed a clean inverse head and shoulders structure — one of the most reliable bullish reversal patterns in technical analysis.
The left shoulder formed earlier this month, followed by a deeper sweep down to $0.2260 to create the head. The latest bounce from the right shoulder at $0.2433 has now carried XLM back into the neckline resistance zone at $0.2578.
The neckline — located at $0.2615 — has been tested multiple times, but buyers have not yet managed to secure a decisive breakout. This resistance area also aligns with a supply block that has capped XLM for nearly two weeks. A convincing close above it would confirm the pattern and likely trigger an acceleration in bullish momentum.

This combination of tightening structure, higher lows, and renewed buying interest suggests that XLM may be preparing for an imminent breakout attempt.
What’s Ahead for XLM?
If XLM successfully breaks above the neckline resistance at $0.2615, the pattern’s measured move points toward a technical target of $0.3053. Such a breakout would represent roughly an 18% upside from the breakout level and could mark the beginning of a broader trend reversal.
However, if XLM fails to break the neckline on its next attempt, the price may pull back into the $0.249–$0.243 support region. This zone, formed by the right-shoulder demand, will be crucial for bulls to defend. Losing it could weaken the structure and delay any bullish momentum.
For now, all eyes are on whether XLM can gather the strength needed to break through the neckline and ignite a new leg higher.
