What's next for ADA price? The next resistance levels for ADA lie at $0.34 and $0.57 if the current rise continues. If the bulls do not give up much ground to the bears, the possibility of a break above $0.30 continues. That suggests Cardano may remain inside the descending channel for some more time. A break and close above the downtrend line signals a potential short-term trend change. Sellers will have to pull the Cardano price below the support line to extend the downward move toward the next support at $0.20. #Cardano News #Cardano #Cardano Price Prediction
