The consolidation in price kept the movement in a horizontal range. STRKstruggled to surpass the $1.36 resistance level. This struggle led to a fall below the psychological $1 mark and reached $0.460 by mid-July 2024, coinciding with the channels lower border.

On July 5th, the price attempted to rise, but this time, it did not even manage to cross $0.637 and deteriorated more in the rest ofJuly.

Now, as observed above, similar to Aprils earlier sideways movement has started in August 2024, too. A rerun of April could mean prolonged bearishness.

On the contrary, if this price action of August is indeed a breakout, then STRK must show a bullish confirmation by crossing above $0.637. Then STRKcould potentially enter a major uptrend.
