Cardano Bulls Brace For ADA Price Slide Before $1 Hits

Market buzz revolves around over 100M sold off by Cardano’s whales, but the $1 target might still be intact.

Stupendously large crypto whale sell-offs over the past three days had triggered more downside for Cardano (ADA), the currency behind the popular Layer-1 blockchain. Per latest technical analysis, the $0.64 is the current potential rebound zone for ADA’s price. However, market analyst Ali Martinez notes that $0.55 is the most important demand territory.

Given that this level is sustained, Mr. Ali forecasts a hike towards $0.75 once the market conditions stabilize. That’s still a distance away, as the broader crypto markets soaked up massive liquidations this Thursday along with Bitcoin’s (BTC) dip to $109K & Ether’s (ETH) pullback to $3.8K.

Cardano’s Upside Trajectory Relies On These Factors

For Cardano (ADA), the price trajectory resembled BTC’s as both digital assets dipped by 2.9% during the latest 24-hour window. Besides, Cardano (ADA) is among the few major-cap altcoins inside the TOP 10 that haven’t soared by more than 100% on a yearly timeframe, hinting at some unrealized potential.

With the crypto whales flushing out 100 million Cardano (ADA) tokens in three days, analysts expect the profit-taking to halt for quite some time if the $0.64 confluent resistance level is sustained. Presently, this doesn’t seem to be the case, as the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) still dwells in a negative area.

Right now, ADA’s price is trying to break the middle-tier Bollinger Band (BOLL), depicted in blue color. With the Parabolic Stop & Reverse (SAR) flashing a ‘sell signal’ above the price, the altcoin remains in bearish dominance despite keeping above key support.

To break out from that, Cardano (ADA) bulls have to push towards $0.75 – $0.78, the key level mentioned by Martinez, which falls in line with the 0.7877 Fibonacci Retracement level. Going further, the $1 becomes a plausible target, unseen since early March, 2025.
