Mapping Story’s [IP] next move: Traders, watch out for THIS level

IP is trading within a symmetrical triangle pattern where a break above or below could determine its next trajectory.

IP was consolidating within a symmetrical triangle that was on the verge of a breakout at the apex of the pattern. The liquidation heatmap showed that crossing $5.50 could drive IP towards $5.70 and suggests bullish strength.

The price action of Story [IP] suggested a point of breakdown in a symmetrical triangle pattern. IP fluctuated between $3.50 and a high of $9.05 which was the range for the triangle pattern.

As of press time, IP’s price hovered around $5.00, suggesting consolidation at the triangle’s apex and hinting at a potential near-term breakout.

The MACD indicator, with a histogram value of -0.0024, displayed bearish momentum, as the MACD line was marginally below the signal line.

An upward breakout from the pattern could push IP’s price above $9.00, provided the MACD histogram turns positive, and the move is supported by higher trading volume.

Conversely, a breakdown below the pattern, accompanied by further weakening of the MACD, could drive the price down to levels below $3.00.

If the price of IP continues to trade within the pattern, a rebound toward higher levels could be on the cards with a neutral MACD. Equally, a bearish breakout could send IP down to $3.00.

With current consolidation and a bearish MACD, a breach below $3.00 is more likely unless market sentiment strengthens, pushing IP past resistance to $10.00.

IP’s liquidation and spot flow ratio

Further analysis of the Binance IP/USDT pair using the 24-hour liquidation heatmap on Coinglass highlighted significant liquidity regions that appear to influence IP’s price movement.

At the time of writing, IP’s price ranged between $4.20 and $5.80, with recent stabilization around $5.00.

These liquidity-rich regions act as price magnets. Key levels include $5.50 as a potential resistance, $5.00 as the current support, $4.50 as a minor support, and $5.70 as an upper resistance.

This suggests that IP might trend toward $5.50, as prices often gravitate toward high-liquidity areas for stop-loss or forced liquidations. A breakout above $5.50 could propel the price to $5.70, indicating bullish momentum.

Failing to hold above $5.00, however, could spark a decline to $4.5 as increasing selling flows in. The levels at $5.7 and $6.0 suggest higher-term objectives should a bullish trend prevail.

The Coinglass IP Spot Inflow/Outflow chart also depicted a positive netflow in the last 24 hours, at press time.

Netflow varied between -$4M and $1M, with significant outflows of -$4M on the 25th of February and inflows of $1M on the 4th of March. However, IP’s recent netflow stood at $175K.

Netflow merely came close to zero, indicating flat action, while the price dropped from $7.00 to $5.00. This would point toward selling pressure because previous outflows may have moderated, yet weaker inflow can limit upside force.

IP follow-through behavior might test $7.00 in case there’s increasing acceleration of inflows or go down to $4.09 in case outflows prevail throughout, signifying underlying marketplace uncertainty.
