Key Takeaways
Cardano (ADA) has been stuck in a descending channel for months, leaving traders wondering whether the trend is still bullish.
Despite multiple failed breakout attempts, ADA has managed to reclaim a key support level that could fuel its next move.
With momentum indicators flashing bullish, the stage may be set for a significant rally.
The weekly time frame ADA chart shows that the price has traded inside a descending parallel channel for the past 287 days.
These channels usually contain corrective movements, meaning an eventual breakout from them is likely.
During this time, ADA made several breakout attempts, the most recent last week, but all were unsuccessful.
While the failure to break out is not a positive sign, ADA has at least reclaimed the $0.85 horizontal area, which previously provided resistance.
If the reclaim is valid, the $0.86 area will provide support in the future and could serve as a spring for a breakout, targeting the cycle high of $1.33.
The most bullish ADA signal comes from its momentum indicators.
Cardano’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) crossed 50 while the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) crossed 0.

The previous times this happened, the signal led to rallies of 170% and 315%, respectively.
So, the bullish signal fits well with Cardano’s price analysis, suggesting a breakout could occur soon.
The wave count supports ADA’s price action, suggesting that the price has started a new five-wave upward movement that will lead to new highs.
According to the count, Cardano has completed an irregular flat A-B-C correction where waves A and C had the same length.

Wave C created an ending diagonal, reinforcing the hypothesis that the trend is bullish and new highs are likely.
If the count is accurate, ADA has started a new five-wave upward movement that will take it to new highs.
If both increases have the same length, the price of Cardano will hit a new cycle high of $1.83 before correcting.
The current wave count and indicator readings suggest ADA could be gearing up for a strong upward move.
If history repeats, a breakout could send Cardano toward fresh cycle highs.
However, whether the short-term bottom is in or another low awaits is unclear.
