If there is a fresh increase, the price could face resistance near the $245 level. The next resistance sits near the $250 level. A clear move above the $250 zone could send the price further higher. In the stated case, BNB price could test $265. A close above the $265 resistance might set the pace for a larger increase toward the $280 resistance.
Downside Correction?
If BNB fails to clear the $245 resistance, it could start a downside correction. Initial support on the downside is near the $240 level and the trend line.
