With an extended bullish candle, the NEAR coin price provides a conclusive breakout from the $6.12 neckline resistance of the rounding bottom pattern. This pattern is recognized by a gradual decline in prices followed by a period of stabilization and a gradual increase, indicating a slow and steady shift in market control from sellers to buyers, leading to a bullish market outlook. However, If the buyers manage to maintain this breakout, the Near protocol price should pursue the theoretical target of $11.2.
