The cryptocurrency market is displaying mixed sentiment today as both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) trade slightly in red, with Ethereum slipping around 2%. This has put mild pressure on several altcoins — including Celestia (TIA) — which is trading modestly lower on the day.
However, despite the short-term pullback, TIA’s latest chart formation is flashing a potential bullish signal. A key accumulation-based structure known as the “Power of 3” pattern appears to be forming, suggesting that smart money could be positioning for a possible upside expansion.

Power of 3 in Play?
Looking closely at the 3-hour chart, TIA seems to be shaping a textbook Power of 3 structure — a concept often used by institutional traders to describe market cycles that progress through Accumulation, Manipulation, and Expansion phases.
Accumulation Phase
In early November, TIA traded in a tight sideways range between $1.0812 and $0.9783. This consolidation zone, highlighted in grey on the chart, indicates a typical accumulation area where buyers gradually build positions before a potential breakout.
Manipulation Phase
On Nov 11, TIA sharply broke below the accumulation zone, hitting a local low around $0.9429. This move likely represented a manipulation or “stop-hunt” phase, shaking out late buyers and triggering stop-loss orders before a trend reversal. Interestingly, the price quickly rebounded from that level, hinting that liquidity may have been collected for the next directional move.

What’s Next for TIA?
Currently, TIA is hovering just under the lower boundary of its former range, around $0.9721, while holding above the 50-period moving average ($0.9631) — a key dynamic support line that adds confidence to the bullish bias.
If TIA can reclaim $0.9783, it would confirm that the manipulation phase has likely concluded and the expansion phase — the final leg of the Power of 3 — is underway. From there, bullish momentum could lift the token toward $1.2195, aligning with the upper resistance zone and representing a potential 25% upside from current prices.
On the flip side, if TIA fails to hold above $0.9429, it would invalidate the bullish pattern, potentially leading to further corrective movement before another accumulation phase can form.
