Clear Uptrend In ARB Signals Potential Breakout

Renowned crypto analyst Michael van De Poppe has identified a clear and promising uptrend in the cryptocurrency ARB. 

Through his technical analysis, van de Poppe observes that the token has been consistently experiencing “beautiful retests” of previous resistance levels, which have now transformed into strong support zones.

If the current price trajectory continues, Michael van De Poppe suggests that investors should keep an eye on a potential optimal “go-to zone” for ARB between $1.50 and $1.60. 

This zone represents a strategic level where the token may experience a retest before deciding to break the psychological barrier of $2.

It remains to be seen if this prediction will come true and how ARB’s price action will develop through the first half of 2024.
