Long liquidations spike as major holders accelerate ADA sales
A recent large-scale liquidation event, triggered by a sudden price drop, led to substantial long liquidations and coincided with reports of major holders selling approximately 90 million ADA over several days. Cardano continues to expand its ecosystem with the Midnight privacy project, enhances data confidentiality for dApps, and furthers cross-chain integration through a technical bridge to Solana. Additional updates include network governance initiatives and ongoing scalability improvements, while founder Charles Hoskinson has addressed rumors regarding significant ADA sales and speculation linked to the Midnight (NIGHT) token.
Negative momentum persists despite short-term recovery signals
Momentum signals remain negative, with both MACD and ADX on the daily chart supporting a bearish outlook. RSI (32.88) and CCI (–110.88) indicate that ADA approaches oversold territory, and Stochastic RSI (21.32) signals further weakness, though its weekly frame is already "oversold." The BBP value (–0.013) confirms sellers’ dominance intraday. There was no significant gap between yesterday's close ($0.36) and today’s open ($0.343), and the current price sits near the upper end of today's range ($0.342–$0.358), with moderate volatility observed. A mild intraday recovery after the open contrasts with the overall negative momentum, creating a divergence between some short-term oscillators and overall trend strength.
Downside risk mounts as upside breakout probability remains low
For the coming five trading days, the adjusted expected price range is $0.330 to $0.370, representing a typical volatility band relative to current levels. The probability of upward movement is very low (less than 20%), making a further decline the more likely scenario. The baseline scenario sees consolidation between $0.330 and $0.370. A bullish scenario would be triggered by a move above $0.370 towards the Ichimoku resistance at $0.412, while a bearish scenario unfolds if ADA slips below $0.330, increasing downside risk.
Previously it was reported that Cardano (ADA) remains under persistent bearish pressure, trading well below its major moving averages, with key indicators such as MACD, ADX, and RSI confirming downside momentum and a trend toward oversold conditions. Support is limited immediately below, resistance is set near $0.416, and the asset is expected to consolidate sideways near recent lows unless significant buying emerges to challenge prevailing bearish sentiment.
