ASTER Whale Accumulation Triggers Bullish Hopes Towards $1.15 Resistance

• A whale withdrew $250K in ASTER from Gate and continues accumulating despite a ~50% unrealized loss.
• The token is gaining spot interest, with risk near 0.546 and upside targets at 0.9, 1.1, and 1.3.
• Liquidity above current levels points to upside potential toward $1.00–$1.15 and rising short squeeze risk.

Among the most evident on-chain transactions is that of wallet 0x1635…50b2, from which $250K worth of tokens was withdrawn from the Gate exchange. This action seems like it is also tied to accumulation, given that wallet 0x1635…50b2 has also been acquiring ASTER for over three months.

ASTER Liquidity Setup Hints a Bullish Breakout to $1.15

Moreover, another crypto analyst, Peak, revealed that the market structure for ASTER is changing nicely, with liquidity placed above current market levels instead of below them. Such a configuration is normally an indicator of an upside pressure, as market levels always drift towards these zones of liquidity to restore market balance. Therefore, a relief rally to at least the $1.00 – $1.15 zone is more likely than before.

This setup also increases the possibilities of a short squeeze scenario where the bears will be obliged to cover their positions as the price continues to rise. If the buying force continues to gather pace with the reclaiming of critical levels of resistance, there might be a swift movement seen in the price of the token.
