DASH-1,2%


Date: Sat, Dec 27, 2025 | 10:25 AM GMT

Dash (DASH), the privacy-focused token, has struggled alongside the broader altcoin market over the past month, shedding nearly 35% of its value amid persistent selling pressure. However, price action is now starting to stabilize, with DASH trading in the green today and posting a modest 4% recovery. More importantly, the latest chart structure suggests that the recent rebound may not be just a short-lived bounce, but part of a developing bullish setup.

Harmonic Pattern Hints at Potential Upside

On the 4-hour timeframe, DASH is forming a Bearish Butterfly harmonic pattern. While the name may sound negative, this pattern typically allows for a strong upside move during its CD leg before price reaches the final reversal zone.

The structure began at Point X near $42.64, followed by a sharp decline into Point A. From there, DASH rebounded toward Point B, where sellers briefly reasserted control, before price dipped once again into Point C around $36.17. This region has since acted as a firm base, with buyers stepping in aggressively to defend the lows.

From Point C, DASH has staged a steady recovery and is currently trading near $41.17. This move indicates improving momentum and suggests that the CD leg of the harmonic structure is actively unfolding.

Adding further strength to this setup is DASH’s successful reclaim of the 100-period moving average near $40.75. This level had previously acted as dynamic resistance throughout the downtrend, and flipping it into support marks a meaningful shift in short-term market structure.

What’s Next for DASH?

As long as DASH holds above the $39.58 support zone, the bullish harmonic structure remains intact. Continued strength above the 100 MA would likely reinforce buyer confidence and keep the CD leg in play.

If momentum persists, the Bearish Butterfly projection points toward the Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ) between $44.73 and $47.38. This area represents the typical completion zone for the pattern and offers an upside window of roughly 14% from current levels before sellers may attempt to regain control.

On the flip side, a breakdown below $39.58 would weaken the bullish outlook and risk invalidating the harmonic structure. Such a move could expose DASH to renewed downside pressure and delay any sustained recovery attempt.

For now, DASH’s ability to hold above reclaimed moving average support and continue building higher lows will be critical in determining whether this recovery can extend further in the sessions ahead.
