Cardano

<p>Cardano (ADA) is currently in a pronounced seven-day decline, which was exacerbated by a fresh descent below the $0.41 mark. This decline is part of a broader trend observed across many altcoins, which have <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/analysis/ada/cardano-ada-falls-ethereums-decline/">reacted negatively</a> to Ethereum’s <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/analysis/eth/ethereum-price-drops-3200-2/">significant drop </a>in the last 24 hours.</p> 
<p>The decline represents a correction from a bullish run that began earlier in the month, during which ADA holders saw good gains. Consequently, this up-and-down movement has created some critical support and resistance levels for ADA, which will be crucial for investors to monitor in the coming days. The market sentiment has shifted considerably, and traders are now focusing on these key levels to gauge whether ADA might rebound or continue its downward trajectory.</p> 
<h2 id="important-price-levels-for-ada">Important Price Levels For ADA</h2> 
<p>At the time of writing, Cardano is trading at $0.3963 and has corrected by 11.6% from a peak of $0.4485 in the past 48 hours. Zooming out on a monthly timeframe shows that the cryptocurrency is merely correcting after a strong bullish run. During this run, ADA surged from $0.3213 to $0.4545 within a week, representing an impressive increase of 41.5%. However, the $0.45 level acted as a significant resistance point, causing ADA to reverse and enter a consolidation phase between $0.45 and $0.40, which was followed by a recent breakdown below the support.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>According to a <a href="https://x.com/Av_Sebastian/status/1815243295926186205" rel="nofollow">technical analysis</a> by a crypto analyst, this consolidation movement created a pattern similar to a small bullish flag, and a breakout above $0.45 to the upside could push ADA to $0.6. This suggests that ADA could soon bounce back up on a support level and resume its uptrend.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>On the other hand, analyzing ADA’s price movement suggests a break to the downside could push it to as low as a final key support level at $0.32 and cancel all of the gains it made earlier in the month. However, this is less likely to happen in the short term, as ADA now finds itself hovering around the $0.40 price level.&nbsp;</p> 
<h2 id="what-s-next-for-cardano">What’s Next For Cardano?</h2> 
<p><a href="https://x.com/santimentfeed/status/1816212665699819550" rel="nofollow">According to</a> blockchain analytics firm Santiment, Cardano (ADA) is one of three cryptocurrencies with significantly negative funding rates on major exchanges. However, Santiment suggests that this may not be entirely detrimental. The heavily negative funding rates indicate a high probability of a price boost from the potential liquidation of short positions.</p> 
<p>Over the past five weeks, Cardano has been <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/news/cardano/cardano-holders-suffering-losses/">consistently shorted</a> on exchanges. Should these shorts be liquidated by even a minor price increase, it could trigger a substantial price surge. This liquidation could act as a catalyst, propelling ADA’s value on an extended surge above $0.6. A potential catalyst for a price increase could be the highly anticipated <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/cardano-founder-chang-hard-fork-basically-there/" rel="nofollow">Chang Hard Fork upgrade</a> to the Cardano blockchain.</p>
