Furthermore, the crypto analyst Scient pointed out that the VIRTUAL price seems to be building a solid bullish pattern by progressively establishing new highs and lows within an uptrend channel formation.
The VIRTUAL price has targeted the critical resistance level of $0.78-$0.80, which has acted as the ceiling for any gains since January. The upside breakout will strengthen the trend further.

The region corresponds to the Value Area High that formed during the initial May breakout period and is located close to the 0.75 Fibonacci box.
As long as the bulls can keep the support intact and maintain their momentum, a rise towards the psychological $1 mark should be expected. Otherwise, in case of rejection at the resistance, the range-bound motion will continue.
