BNB Breaks Above $1,000 Amid Broader Market Rally, But Reversal Pattern Clod Outlook

The native token of the BNB Chain, BNB, climbed 1.6% over the past 24 hours, moving from $988 to top the $1,000 mark. The gains came as trading activity surged, pushing the token above a key psychological level.

The spike in price followed a surge in volume according to CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis data model, with 93,800 tokens changing hands in the past 24 hours. This rush pushed BNB past its near-term resistance, with traders leaning into the move as part of a broader rally in exchange tokens.

A series of higher lows at $977.90, $987.34 and $991.86 confirmed bullish momentum into the breakout amid a broader market rally that saw the CoinDesk 20 (CD20) index rise 6.12% in the same period.

Prices rose after U.S. President Donald Trump said he plans on directing a tariff dividend of “at least” $2,000 to most Americans alongside solid movement towards reopening the government.

But the strength didn’t hold. BNB reversed from resistance near $1,010, forming a descending channel that suggests momentum is fading. In one key moment, a wave of selling volume pushed prices down to $1,003.50.

Short-term resistance is now seen around $1,004, with a psychological floor at $1,000. A clean break below could expose downside levels near $991.86 or even $977.90.

Bulls are eyeing a retest of $1,018, with longer-term targets as high as $1,065 if momentum rebuilds.
