TRX price has maintained an overall uptrend since the second week of February. It has defied sell pressure even when top coins such as Bitcoin and Ethereum were struggling with weak demand and sell pressure.
Depite its robust performance, traders now thing TRX price may be about to embark on a sizable correction. This is because Tron crypto price recently encountered resistance at the $0.33 price level. The same price level previously acted as a historic consolidation zone.

TRX price struggled to break through the $0.33 level for 4 consecutive days. Prior to that, it had rallied by about 25% from its lowest price level year-to-date.
Moreover, the Tron crypto price encountered resistance after pushing into overbought territory according to the RSI. The last time that the cryptocurrency embarked on such as sizable steady uptrend, it experienced a significant correction.
Oversold conditions and retesting a historically significant price level were not the only reasons why analysts anticipate a retracement. Address activity usually cools when traders anticipate a retracement.
Recent data revealed that active Tron addresses have cooled by 21% since TRX price retested resistance. This decline was observed within the last seven days suggesting a high likelihood that a retracement could be on the cards.

Declining address activity may suggest that Tron network users might be exercising caution before the market makes its move.
A retracement could potentially trigger a significant liquidation event if the Tron (TRX) crypto price makes another drastic move. The current situation underscores a potential retracement and this means investors might be piling up to execute short positions.
CoinGlass data revealed that the Tron crypto open interest hovered slightly above $343 million at the time of observation. This OI was a 6-month high, indicating growing interest in the derivatives segment as the TRX price rally fuelled optimism.

The rising open interest suggests that investors may be executing leveraged positions. This means longs will suffer heavy losses if price enters a sizable retracement.
On the other hand, shorts are likely to pile up now that the market expects a retracement. This could turn out to be a trap for the bulls if the Tron crypto price suddenly pushes above the current resistance level.
TRX crypto inflows cooled down substantially at the time of observation. However, outflows remained at bay, which is uncharacteristic of a major retracement.
Beyond the Tron (TRX) crypto price action, Justin Sun is making crypto news headlines after he reportedly filed a lawsuit against WLFI. He reportedly filed the lawsuit at the California Federal Court to protect his right as a WLFI crypto holder.
According to the lawsuit, Justin Sun claims that the World Liberty Financial team froze his WLFI tokens.
The lawsuit alleges that they even threatened to burn his holdings and strip his voting rights. Moreover, no justification was reportedly offered for WLFI’s course of action.

It was unclear whether Justin Sun was the only WLFI holder affected. However, he had reportedly invested between $30 and $40 million in the crypto. Meanwhile, WLFI crypto has been trading near historic lows, contrary to Tron (TRX) price which has been rallying for almost two months.
