On Thursday, July 24, Justin Sun, founder of the TRON blockchain, rang the Nasdaq Opening Bell in Times Square to mark the public debut of TRON Inc.

TRX price technical analysis
TRX price recently attempted a breakout from the ascending channel it’s been trading within since mid-March, reaching an intraday high near $0.34 before quickly pulling back into the channel. The move above the channel’s upper boundary appeared promising at first, as TRX price extended its multi-month uptrend and remained well above the 20-day EMA throughout July.
This EMA now serves as dynamic support, containing the recent pullback from the $0.34 peak. The price is currently hovering just above it, around $0.31. Moreover, the price remains in the upper region of the channel, which increases the likelihood of another breakout attempt.
If support holds between $0.30 and $0.28 — the EMA and channel midpoint — TRX price could base for another breakout attempt. A confirmed close above $0.34 would be needed to validate a fresh leg higher, with an upside target around the psychological $0.40 mark. However, a close below $0.30 would increase the likelihood of continued consolidation within the ascending channel.
