Key Takeaways
The Cardano (ADA) price has surged today, nearly reaching $1 and breaking from a long-term diagonal resistance level.
ADA has not crossed $1 since February, but this potential breakout could catalyze an increase that takes it well above the psychological resistance of $1.
Let’s examine the chart and see what lies ahead for ADA the rest of the year.
The weekly time frame Cardano chart provides a highly bullish outlook for several reasons.
While ADA has been inside a descending parallel channel since November 2024, it is about to end its correction.
The trend reversal started after ADA created a bullish triple bottom pattern (green icons) inside the $0.60 horizontal support area.
Today, the price of Cardano has nearly reached the channel’s resistance trend line, which has existed for more than 230 days.
Momentum indicators suggest ADA will break out. More specifically, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) have given a bullish signal, leading to rallies of 176% and 316%, respectively.
The RSI crossed above 50 and the MACD became positive, creating the signal for the third time since 2022.

A 176% Cardano increase will take the price to a high of $2.60, while a 316% rally will take ADA to a new all-time high, which is the upper limit of the forecast.
A breakout and weekly close above the channel will confirm the signal’s validity and begin the rally.
So, the Cardano price prediction for 2025 is bullish, and ADA will likely break out from its channel and move to new highs.
Cardano’s wave count adds to the positive prediction from the price action, suggesting the rest of 2025 will be bullish.
The wave count shows an irregular A-B-C correction (red) which ends with a descending wedge.
This is the same pattern seen in Chainlink’s price, which, like ADA, has already broken out.

If the count is accurate, ADA has started another five-wave upward movement and is in wave three, explaining why the rally is parabolic.
If Cardano’s increase has the same length as the previous one, ADA will reach a high of $1.84.
While this falls short of the signal’s lower range, an extension can bring the ADA price inside the target.
The Cardano price action and wave count give bullish predictions for the rest of 2025, suggesting ADA will cross $2.
A breakout from the long-term parallel channel will confirm the bullish signal given by the momentum indicators.
The wave count also implies the Cardano increase will become parabolic soon.
