AAVE getting the Trump pump
The past 2 years
Anyone who's been following me for a while knows I have been and continue to be quite bullish on AAVE. My first large buy this cycle having been around $55 in 2022, with additional buys on the way up at $70 and $100.AAVEUSD has been carving out higher highs and higher lows for the good part of 2 years now. Then in July we got a nice bullish engulfing hammer setup off the $90 support level. That set the tone for continued bullishness and set up the next leg that has brought us to where we are at today, currently at $170.

I am not a fundamentals guy but I think there's some points here that shouldn't be ignored if you're planning on holding this for longer than a short term trade. Aave has proven itself as the best, the largest, and the most trusted DeFi borrowing/lending platform around. As we've often seen with other tech leaders (e.g. Amazon, Google, etc), Aave which was already the largest platform by TVL and market share has only gotten larger and taken even more market share. This isn't by accident. Aave has an absolute superstar team that continues to deliver year after year, rain or shine, bull or bear. I don't see this changing anytime soon.
The Trump partnership
I'm using the term "partnership" very loosely since Aave is a money lego that anyone can build on, but it's important to note that this is the protocol the Trump team decided to build their front-end on. In addition to that, their respective communities are working together on token allocations, which is as close to a partnership as you'll find in the DeFi space.
The Trump pump
With pro-crypto candidates winning across U.S. on election night and Trump, the most pro crypto presidential candidate we've ever had, winning the presidency, this has set up a major tailwind for the crypto space and put a spotlight on Aave. It remains to be seen just how big of an impact this has in the long term, but I know I'm not going to fade it.

Back to the chart technicals, as I said at the start of the post, AAVE has a nice long term bullish chart structure. The way I've been trading this is by having a core position based on the long term setup, and then trading around that core position anytime shorter term setups to present themselves. I've kept this trade simple by going from key level to key level and knowing where my invalidation levels are. The most recent being the $120 major support area. My 1st big price target which I've had marked for the last few years now, sits around around $450. That can change as we get new price action setups, but these are the parameters I'm trading with right now. In the meantime I'll continue watching the short and medium term for new setups to trade around my core position.
