Cardano Price in an Ascending Channel

Since reaching lows of 715 satoshis on June 28, the ADA price has been increasing, trading inside the ascending channel outlined below: The increase has been gradual, with both the resistance and support lines being touched several times. There is a significant resistance area near 820 satoshis. If the Cardano price continues to increase at the rate predicted by the channel, it is likely to reach this area on July 3.

Moving Averages

On March 21, the 100-day MA crossed above the 200-day one. This is known as a bullish cross. Due to the length of the MAs, it is a long-term cross. This cross preceded the upward move which caused the ADA price to reach a high of 1944 satoshis on Apr 3. However, a decrease ensued shortly after. The same MAs are now close to making a bearish cross. On June 19, the relatively short-term 10- and 20-day moving averages made a bearish cross. Afterwards, the 10-day MA provided close resistance to the price. It has done so on several occasions, most recently on July 3, when it initiated a drop of almost 5%, from 815 to 775 satoshis. The weekly moving averages give a similar outlook. A bearish cross between the 10- and 20- week moving averages transpired on June 1. It preceded the most recent downward move. During this move, it has provided very close resistance to the Cardano price. An analysis of moving averages indicates that the price is likely still in a downtrend.

Possible Reversal

However, a look at the RSI and the MACD shows that the price may shortly begin an upward move and break out from the downtrend. A significant bullish divergence has developed in both indicators since May 13. This was especially visible after the creation of the low on June 28. If the ADA price begins an upward move and breaks out from the resistance outlined in the first section, it is likely to face resistance near 910 satoshis. This level acted as support during the lows of May 13, and afterwards as resistance on June 19-23.

Summary

The price of Cardano is currently very close to reaching an all-time low price. An analysis of moving averages shows that the price is firmly entrenched inside a downtrend. However, momentum indicators show that the price might soon begin an upward move and reach the resistance area outlined above. Do you think the price of Cardano will begin an upward move?
