Is Hedera (HBAR) Gearing Up for a Bullish Rally? Key Fractal Hints at a Major Upside Move

Date: Mon, May 26, 2025 | 06:58 PM GMT The cryptocurrency market has mounted a solid comeback in recent weeks, with Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) continuing to lead the charge. BTC has surged by 15%, while ETH has jumped over 40% in the past month. This wave of bullish sentiment is also lifting spirits across the altcoins sector. However, Hedera (HBAR) is still lagging behind in terms of monthly performance. But a powerful fractal pattern is now flashing a bullish signal — one that could hint at a much bigger move on the horizon.

HBAR and ADA Fractal Chart/Source: @MaeliusCrypto (X) "$HBAR looking exceptionally good here. Broke out of diagonal resistance, now the question is if we get some consolidation first, before next impulsive move higher," Maelius noted. In the 2020–2021 cycle, ADA followed a pattern of: Major downtrendLong accumulation phaseBreakout from diagonal resistanceRetest of the accumulation zoneFollowed by a parabolic rally — where the price surged over 3,000%

Now, HBAR appears to be tracing this exact structure, nearly step by step. As shown in the fractal comparison chart, $HBAR has just flipped its weekly demand zone, similar to how ADA did before its explosive rally. What’s Next? HBAR/USD is currently trading at $0.19, having recently broken above a multi-month diagonal resistance line.It is retesting a key accumulation and demand zone, now potentially acting as support.The MACD on the weekly timeframe shows a bullish crossover, similar to ADA’s in early 2021.However, the 3D WTO (Wave Trend Oscillator) has crossed bearish, suggesting that short-term consolidation or a small pullback may happen before any further upside. If history is any guide — and if the fractal holds — HBAR could be on the verge of a breakout rally that mimics ADA's legendary move. Final Thoughts HBAR may still be under the radar for now, but technical and structural similarities with ADA’s historic rally are hard to ignore. The coming weeks will be key. If the $0.10–$0.15 demand zone holds and buyers step in again, HBAR could be preparing for an explosive move to the upside.
