ADA Price Analysis

Amid the broader market uncertainty, the ADA price resonated within a narrow range of a triangle pattern for the past two weeks. With the recent Bitcoin jump on August 29th, the buyers breached the pattern’s overhead barrier in an attempt to kickstart a fresh rally. However, the overhead supply at an immediate barrier of $0.278 undermined the breakout move and put the sea altcoin at risk of further correction.

A bullish breakout from the pattern overhead resistance was expected to release buying pressure but the buyers were blocked at $0.278 resistance.

The aforementioned level aligned with the August 17th high indicates a strong resistance force against buyers. Interestingly, the whole two weeks’ consolidation in Cardano price wavered within the range of aforementioned, indicating a high of $0.278 acted as major resistance, and the $0.238 low acted as strong support.

The daily candle projecting high wick rejection at the aforementioned barrier indicates the overhead supply persists, and the coin holders may witness prolonged sideways until the range pattern is intact.
