Key Takeaways

  • SAND price is showing early signs of stabilization after recent downside pressure.

  • Buyers appear to be defending a key support zone, hinting at a potential short-term rebound.

  • A breakout above nearby resistance could open the door for a stronger recovery move.


Gaming-focused crypto tokens are back in the spotlight after Axie Infinity (AXS) posted a sharp rally of over 16% in a single day and more than 246% over the past month, reigniting optimism around the gaming narrative. Riding this renewed momentum, Sandbox (SAND) has also stepped into focus, climbing nearly 45% as overall market sentiment turns constructive.

Beyond the recent price bounce, the technical structure on the chart is starting to tell a bigger story, hinting that SAND may be setting up for a bullish continuation move.

Descending Broadening Wedge Pattern in Play

On the daily timeframe, SAND is trading within a descending broadening wedge — a bullish reversal pattern that often develops during corrective phases before a trend shift. This structure reflects increasing volatility, with price gradually compressing while buyers quietly regain control.

During the latest pullback, SAND successfully retested the lower boundary of the wedge near the $0.11 zone, an area that has repeatedly acted as strong demand. Buyers stepped in aggressively at this level, triggering a rebound that pushed price toward $0.1711, placing SAND right near the wedge’s upper resistance trendline.

The steady rise toward this upper boundary suggests growing bullish momentum and increasing breakout pressure.

What’s Next for SAND?

If buyers manage to push SAND above the upper wedge resistance near $0.1711, it would confirm a bullish breakout from the pattern. In that scenario, the chart opens the door for a move toward the $0.2849 target, which aligns with the measured move of the wedge and represents roughly 73% upside from current levels.

However, if price faces rejection at resistance, SAND could continue consolidating within the wedge structure. In that case, the $0.13–$0.14 region will act as an important short-term support zone to watch.

Bottom Line

SAND’s overall technical structure remains constructive. With a bullish descending broadening wedge in play, buyers defending key support, and gaming tokens gaining renewed attention, Sandbox appears to be positioning for a potential breakout. A confirmed move above resistance could mark the beginning of a stronger upside phase in the sessions ahead.
