Cardano price must hold critical support level to avoid 15% drop

  • Cardano price trades right above a key support level on the 4-hour chart.
  • Losing this critical point would lead ADA into a 15% fall. 
  • The digital asset is contained between two significant moving averages.

Cardano has been trading sideways for the past 48 hours above a key support level on the 4-hour chart. The digital asset must stay above $1.18 and crack $1.20 for a significant breakout, otherwise ADA will fall steeply.

Cardano price on the verge of a major move

Cardano is trading at $1.18 at the time of writing, right above a key support trend line that coincides with the 100 SMA at $1.16.

A breakdown below these two key support levels will drive the Cardano price toward the psychological level of $1, as there is almost no other support below.

On the other hand, if the bulls can hold the key support level and reclaim the 50 SMA support, the Cardano price can swiftly move toward $1.34. Above this point, there is virtually no resistance until the all-time high of $1.5.
