Cardano Elliott Wave technical review [Video]

ADA/USD Elliott Wave technical review

  • Function: Counter Trend.

  • Mode: Corrective.

  • Structure: Flat.

  • Position: Wave ((C)).

  • Next higher degree direction: Wave II.

  • Invalidation level: Not defined.

ADA/US Dollar (ADA/USD) – Trading plan

Cardano (ADA) is currently positioned in wave C of wave II, which marks the final stage of a broader corrective move. Wave I concluded at the 1.331 USD level. Wave II follows a typical ABC correction pattern and is approaching the completion of wave C. The expected target for wave (5) within wave C is around 0.553 USD.

Trading strategy

  • Approach

    • Tactic.

      • Short-term traders (Swing trading).

        • Monitor for a new wave formation. The 0.53–0.56 USD price range could present a favorable entry point if a strong reversal pattern appears, such as:

          • Bullish divergence.

          • Pin bar.

          • Breakout.

  • Risk management

    • The wave count becomes invalid if price drops below 0.292 USD. In such case, the entire wave structure needs re-evaluation.

ADA/US Dollar (ADA/USD) – Trading plan

On the H4 timeframe, Cardano (ADA) is likewise completing wave C of wave II – the last part of a major corrective cycle. Wave I peaked at 1.331 USD. The ABC correction within wave II is ending, with the final wave C targeting approximately 0.553 USD.

Trading strategy

  • Approach.

    • Tactic.

      • Short-term traders (Swing trading).

        • Watch for a new impulsive wave. The 0.53–0.56 USD zone could be advantageous if clear reversal signs appear such as:

          • Bullish divergence.

          • Pin bar.

          • Breakout.

  • Risk management

    • The structure becomes invalid below the 0.292 USD level. If this happens, a full structural review is required.
