Cardano Price Skyrockets in a Parabolic Curve

Cardano has made an excellent upward movement, thanks to the US Election, which broke the local resistance zone at $0.3640. The ADA/USD price action in a 4-hour timeframe highlights a rapid surge in bullish momentum. Initially, the token experienced a period of consolidation, moving sideways, indicating a balance between buying and selling forces.

However, following reports of Trump’s victory as the 47th president of the U.S., bulls have sprung into action to engineer a big bounce for ADA. ADA has broken out in a parabolic curve, printing green candlesticks with the wick touching $0.4418.

At press time, ADA sits on top of confluence support, strengthened by key bullish indicators on the charts, starting with the 50-day Moving Average (MA) (green) and the 200-day MA (blue). In this case, the $0.3506 and $0.3529 act as immediate support levels, steadying the market’s uptrend. 

However, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) cautions traders of a potential correction. After climbing from support at the mid-line (50), the RSI jumped into the overbought area, hitting the 85.81 strength level. Traders won’t have to worry about sudden pullbacks with the RSI above 70, as this position also means a correction is imminent.

The Moving Average Convergence Divergence also calls for traders to rally behind ADA. Its position above the neutral area in the positive region and the increase in the size of the green histograms suggest intense buying strength. Moreover, the blue MACD line has crossed above the orange signal line, validating the bullish sentiment. 

How High Can ADA Go?

The bulls are currently in full control of the Cardano market, quashing their seller congestion. However, traders are advised to be cautious as the RSI roams around the overbought region. A retracement will likely follow to allow ADA to sweep through more liquidity as already sidelined investors rush to buy lower-priced Cardano tokens.

For now, all eyes are on the immediate support at $0.3640, as a pullback will see the bulls chase that support level. In the meantime, if the Bulls capitalize on the Golden Cross, an increased buying appetite will see the Cardano price at $0.5 or above the $0.68 mark.
