Key Takeaways

  • The Cardano (ADA) price reached a five-month high today.
  • Cardano broke out from a long-term descending parallel channel.
  • Can Cardano sustain its breakout and reach a new cycle high?

Cardano (ADA) has climbed to its highest level in five months, finally breaking out of a long-term downtrend.

After spending more than 250 days stuck in a descending parallel channel, the bulls finally have the upper hand.

Let’s examine the charts and see what’s next for Cardano.

Cardano’s Bullish Breakout

The ADA price had fallen inside a descending parallel channel since its cycle high of $1.32 in December 2024.

Throughout the entire year, the price of Cardano bounced at the channel’s support three times (green icons), creating a triple bottom pattern.

On top of this, ADA validated the $0.60 horizontal support area thrice, giving even more validity to the bullish price action.

As is likely after such a structure, the Cardano price started an upward movement in July, leading to an ADA breakout from the channel today, after more than 250 days.

Breakouts from such long-term structures usually lead to sustained upward movements.

Not only is this the case, but momentum indicators have given a signal that previously led to rallies of 176% and 316%, respectively.

To explain more clearly, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) crossed 50, while the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) made a bullish cross (black).

Even an increase in the lower range of the signal, meaning at 176%, will lead to a high of $2.06, giving a bullish Cardano price prediction for the rest of 2025.

ADA Price to $2?

The price action and momentum indicators have given a signal that could lead to an increase toward $2.

Next in line is the wave count, which gives a very similar target of $1.84.

According to the count, the Cardano price completed a five-wave upward movement (green) and an A-B-C correction (red), where waves A and C had the same length.

The Cardano price is currently in wave three of the ensuing five-wave upward movement, which could take it to $1.84.

While correction could occur along the way, the ADA price has likely started the most parabolic portion of its upward movement, leading to a new cycle high.

New Cycle Highs Incoming

With a triple bottom pattern in place and key indicators turning positive, Cardano looks ready for a decisive move higher.

Targets between $1.84 and $2.06 are now on the radar, hinting at plenty of room for growth.

If the trend holds, ADA could be heading for a new cycle high in the months ahead.
