The market action early Monday caught bulls and bears off guard. The unexpected price fluctuation wiped out over $465 million in long positions and $203 million in shorts, totaling $669 million across various crypto assets, per CoinGlass data.

At press time, Stellar (XLM) was down 3.49% in the last 24 hours to $0.2814 and 10.87% weekly. Stellar's 24-hour trading volume is increasing as traders seek to profit from market volatility, up 88.83% to $270 million per CoinMarketCap data.

XLM faces short-term risk

As the cryptocurrency market experiences selling pressure, Stellar (XLM) is approaching a major support test, with the next move potentially decisive.

According to crypto analyst Ali, XLM must hold the $0.27 level to avoid a steeper correction. A break below this key support could trigger a potential 14% decline, dragging the price down to around $0.23.

"Stellar (XLM) needs to hold $0.27 to avoid a 14% correction to $0.23," Ali warned in a recent post on X.

Now trading at $0.281, XLM touched intraday lows of $0.276 in the early Monday session, indicating that bulls are actively defending the $0.27 range to forestall further drops. If this is sustained, XLM might aim to retest the daily SMA 200 at $0.323 ahead of the May 12 high of $0.334.

On the other hand, further selling pressure might target a drop toward the $0.266 level at the daily SMA 50 ahead of the $0.23 level.
