AAVE Price Outlook
AAVE is currently testing the key resistance zone of $240–$280. Crypto analyst CW explains that once this level is decisively broken, the next major sell wall doesn’t appear until the $400 mark.

This free gap above $280 could trigger another leg up if volume and momentum sustain.
On the daily AAVE price chart, the RSI is entering overbought territory, indicating potential for short-term consolidation or a pullback. However, strong RSI levels during uptrends can also reflect intense buying momentum.

The Bollinger Bands have widened significantly, and price action is hugging the upper band. This suggests a continuation of bullish pressure but also leads to high-volatility. If AAVE sustains above the mid band (20-day SMA) around $240, it could set a price target of $400 in the near-term.
Meanwhile, the Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) line is trending upwards, indicating consistent buying interest and capital inflow.
