Cardano (ADA) Technical Overview
4-hour chart for ADA/USDT (Source: TradingView)
A bullish ascending triangle had formed on ADA’s 4-hour chart, after the Ethereum-killer’s price printed higher lows over the past week. The next 4-hour close will be a key indicator of whether or not the altcoin’s price will rebound from this low and make a move toward the base of the chart pattern at $0.3752 in the next 24 hours.
Should ADA’s price continue to fall in the next 4 hours, it may set a new low in the bullish chart pattern, which will postpone any move toward the aforementioned base. On the other hand, a close above the previous 4-hour candle’s low at $0.3613 will serve as a confirmation of the $0.3752 mark being targeted in the next 24 hours.
Technical indicators on ADA’s 4-hour chart supported a bearish thesis at press time. Most notably, the 9 EMA line was on the cusp of crossing bearishly below the 20 EMA line.
Furthermore, the RSI line on the 4-hour chart was sloped negatively toward the oversold territory and was positioned below the RSI SMA line. Both of these technical flags suggested ADA’s price would continue to fall in the next 24 hours.
If these bearish flags are validated, ADA’s price could drop to as low as $0.3527 in the next 24-48 hours. On the other hand, a break above the 9 and 20 EMA lines on the 4-hour chart could see the crypto’s price flip the resistance level at $0.3752 into support before rising to $0.3834 in the following 24-48 hours.
Daily chart for ADA/USDT (Source: TradingView)
Technical indicators on ADA’s daily chart expressed the same bearish outlook seen on the 4-hour chart. At press time, the 9-day EMA was trading bearishly below the 20-day EMA. In addition to this, the shorter EMA line was breaking away from the 20-day EMA line as well.
A bearish technical flag was also triggered by the daily RSI indicator recently, with the daily RSI line crossing bearishly below the daily RSI SMA line. The daily chart also supported the downside target of $0.3527 shown on the 4-hour chart.
This bearish thesis will be invalidated if ADA’s price is able to close today’s trading session above the 9-day EMA line at around $0.37. Thereafter, the altcoin’s price will need to break above the $0.3760 before investors and traders can realistically look at entering into a long position for ADA in the coming 48 hours.
