Analyst Ali Martinez predicted a 40% surge in the price of Avalanche (AVAX) in the near future.
Martinez said that this prediction will only apply if AVAX is able to successfully break above the $33-$37 price level.
A failure to break above $37 puts AVAX at the risk of dropping to the nearest support level of $34.18.

Avalanche is poised for significant gains of 40% if the cryptocurrency breaks above the descending trendline that sits in the $37-$38 price region. However, if AVAX fails to break this trendline, a deeper analysis of the chart shows that a retest of the nearest support of $34.18 is likely. A drop below this support then opens the chances of a massive collapse to $29.17, $24.69, or even $22.18.
Meanwhile, CoinMarketCap shows that the trading volume of Avalanche remains robust with a 52.69% increase in the past 24 hours. The altcoin’s volume stands at a substantial $499.79 million, while its market cap stands at $14.89 billion, ranked as the 12th-largest digital currency.
