Key Points

  • Cardano broke above key resistance at the $0.55 level on Saturday.
  • The latest bullish break opens the door to ADA to run higher towards the $0.67-69 area.
  • Cardano developers continue to make progress towards the so-called Vasil hard fork upgrade.

Cardano Price Prediction: ADA Breaks Above $0.55 Resistance, Opening Door to Further Upside

ADA, the native token that powers the Cardano blockchain broke above a key area of short-term resistance on Saturday, opening the door for significant further upside in the next few days/weeks, so long as the bulls can remain in control. ADA/USD broke above the $0.55 level on Saturday, reaching nearly as high as the $0.57 mark in earlier trade.

At current levels just below $0.56, the cryptocurrency is trading with gains of over 3.0% on the day and more than 7.0% in the last 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap. $0.55 had been acting as a ceiling for the last few weeks, with technicians arguing that Cardano had formed an ascending triangle.

ADA now seems to have broken to the north of this ascending triangle pattern, opening the door to significant further gains in the short-term, with bulls now likely to target a test of the next major area of resistance in the $0.67-0.69 area. With ADA having been supported by an uptrend since mid-July, as well as by its 21-Day Moving Average (currently around $0.5150), dips in the cryptocurrency are likely to be bought for the foreseeable future.
