SUI has broken out of its multi-month structure and reclaimed the $1 mark, with analysts flagging $1.42 as a key trend-change level. The token trades above both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages — the two most widely tracked trend markers in technical analysis — as trading volume expands alongside the September breakout.

According to chart analysts Crypto Patel and Ali Charts, a weekly close above $1.42 could open upside targets at $2.65, $5.36, $10 and $20, while $1.01 offers nearby support. SUI has climbed rapidly from its September low near $0.68-$0.70 and was trading around $1.273 after clearing its multi-month structure. The token also moved above $1 and its previous August high.

SUI Reclaims Key Levels

Crypto Patel said in a post on X that SUI broke its multi-month descending structure and reclaimed its key trendline. Structures of this kind map the series of lower highs that has capped rallies for months, which is why breaking one is treated as a trend signal rather than ordinary volatility. The analyst identified $0.87 as the confirmed channel breakout level but placed greater emphasis on $1.42 as the higher-timeframe trend-change level.

According to Patel, a weekly close above $1.42 would invalidate the prevailing bearish structure. Weekly closes carry that weight because they filter out intraweek swings and are the candle used on higher-timeframe charts; until one prints above $1.42, the level remains unconfirmed. The analyst listed $2.65, $5.36, $10 and $20 as upside targets. If SUI/USDT fails below $1.42, Patel said the price could retest the $0.84-$0.70 accumulation zone.

Ali Charts noted that SUI bounced from the channel bottom after three macro buy signals appeared on its weekly chart. The analyst also pointed out that the token reclaimed the mid-range near $1.

Volume Expands During September Rally

Chart data on Santiment shows SUI rising sharply through September after several months of broad consolidation. The September low held near $0.68-$0.70, while the price reached about $1.273. SUI also moved above its August high around $0.92-$0.95 and crossed the $1 level.

The 50-day moving average sits near $1.01, and the 200-day moving average stands near $0.819, leaving SUI above both measures. The 50-day average has also turned upward after spending much of the summer below or near the 200-day average — the alignment analysts typically associate with a downtrend losing its grip.

Trading volume reached roughly 933.26 million SUI during the latest advance. The increase accompanied the breakout and followed quieter activity during July and early August. Volume is the metric chart watchers most often pair with breakouts, since expansion alongside a move signals broader participation than a rally on thin trading.

$1.40 Remains the Next Chart Barrier

On the upside, $1.30 represents the immediate psychological level, followed by the chart high around $1.401. A sustained move above $1.40 would open higher price levels on the chart. Round figures like these draw attention on their own, apart from any chart-derived support or resistance.

However, a rejection between $1.30 and $1.40 could send SUI back toward $1.01, with the $0.92-$0.95 area offering another support zone. Current chart levels place $1.30, $1.40 and Patel's $1.42 mark above the prevailing price. Under Patel's framework, the $2.65-and-above targets only come into play once a weekly candle closes above $1.42, making that weekly close the checkpoint to watch from here.
