ADA at crucial resistance as Milkomeda C1 launched on Cardano

YEREVAN(CoinChapter.com) – ADA, the in-house token of smart contract platform Cardano, reached $1.2 in value on Mar. 29, after a week of incremental upside advances, adding up to 30%. While ADA paired most of its losses in Q1 2022, the token arrived at a crucial resistance that could hinder its bullish claims.

In detail, the $1.2 support-turned-resistance has been instrumental since Feb. 2021, and the latest retest occurred in early Feb. 2022. If Cardano’s token breaks the said resistance, it could continue the rally to $1.6.

Moreover, ADA/USD price action registered a Golden Cross between the 20-day exponential moving average (EMA-20) and the EMA-50. In hindsight, the formation signifies a bullish phase ahead as long as the short-term MA maintains the dominant position. But several technicals point in the bearish direction.

Bearish outlook for ADA after all?

For example, despite the price advance, the trading volumes have been declining for a week, suggesting insufficient buying pressure from ADA bulls. Additionally, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD; green/red histogram) hinted at a looming downtrend.

In technical analysis, the MACD indicator is primarily a trend-based momentum indicator. It shows the relationship between two moving averages of an asset’s price. Additionally, daytraders use MACD to spot direction changes in prices. The indicator helps form decisions regarding entering, adding to, or exiting existing positions.

On the chart above, the MACD showed a weakening in the bullish bias, which could possibly lead to a retracement, paired with the firm resistance at $1.2.

However, fundamental news favor Cardano, as its ecosystem grew with another project. The latter was dubbed Milkomeda, the collision product between the Andromeda galaxy and the Milky Way.
