On August 18, EWI’s Jason Soni highlighted a potential turning point in Mantle. What happened next made this forecast worth revisiting.
In the fast-moving cryptocurrency market, a correction can look like the beginning of a much larger decline.
But sometimes, that same correction can offer an opportunity.
On August 18, 2026, during a live Crypto Junctures webinar, Elliott Wave International analyst Jason Soni highlighted an interesting setup developing in Mantle (MNT).
Mantle had rallied from approximately $0.387 to $0.467 before beginning to pull back.
Jason’s Elliott wave analysis suggested that the advance had unfolded in five waves, while the subsequent decline appeared to be developing as a three-wave correction.
That distinction was important.
If his interpretation was correct, the correction could set the stage for another advance.
And Jason had a specific price area in mind, he told subscribers:
“I’d like to see support found somewhere around 41 to 42 cents”
His chart identified two important Fibonacci levels near that area: $0.4174 and $0.4206.

The analysis also outlined ways traders could approach the opportunity, including waiting for the corrective pattern to finish or for additional evidence of a reversal.
Jason explained:
“If that unfolds the way I suspect, then it will offer a bullish opportunity for further upside.”
He added:
“It’s certainly one of the better setups that I’ve noticed.”
So, what happened next?
Can you say, “Bull’s-eye”?

By August 31, Jason’s follow-up chart showed just how closely Mantle had followed the anticipated path — finding support near $0.42 before rallying approximately 40%.
What makes this example noteworthy isn’t simply the size of the move.
Jason had identified a potential turning point in advance, provided subscribers with specific price levels to watch, and outlined ways to approach the opportunity while managing risk.
That’s the kind of forward-looking analysis subscribers receive through Crypto Junctures.
