Filecoin advanced 4.3% to $1.32 over 24 hours as institutional flows propelled the token through critical resistance levels.

The model shows that volume confirmation came at midnight UTC with 2.9 million tokens changing hands, 87% above the session average of 1.55 million.
The rise validated FIL’s breakout above resistance at $1.29, turning the level into new support, according to the model.
Higher lows at $1.260, $1.277 and $1.291 signal that institutional accumulation is replacing retail volatility, according to the model.
