An analyst has pointed out how Cardano is currently breaking out of a Triangle pattern, a signal that could be bullish for ADA’s price. Cardano Has Surged Beyond Triangle Resistance Line In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has talked about a technical analysis (TA) pattern forming in the hourly price of Cardano. The pattern in question is a Triangle, which forms when an asset consolidates between two converging trendlines. The upper trendline is likely to act as a source of resistance in the future, while the lower one can provide support. Just like in many other TA consolidation patterns, a break beyond either of these lines can imply a continuation of the trend in that direction.

The trendlines being convergent means that as the price travels inside this type of consolidation channel, its range gets progressively narrower, until it compresses down to a point. There are a few different types of Triangles in TA. The most popular variants include the Ascending, Descending, and Symmetrical Triangles. In the context of the current topic, the relevant Triangle is closest to the third of these. In this pattern, trendlines converge with each other at a roughly equal and opposite slope toward a midpoint. Below is the chart shared by the analyst that shows the Triangle that Cardano was trading inside until the past day. As is visible in the graph, Cardano had been moving inside this Triangle for almost three weeks, before a break arrived in the past day. Just prior to the break, the coin had nearly approached the apex of the triangle, meaning its consolidation had turned very tight. Generally, as an asset’s range becomes narrower, a breakout becomes more likely. Yesterday, before ADA found its break, the analyst had shared the same chart for the Triangle, noting the stage was set for a move. Martinez had noted that this move could potentially be a swing to equal to 27%, based on the height of the Triangle from the lowest price bottom. The question was which direction the breakout might occur in. In Symmetrical Triangles, a breakout is equally likely in both directions. The Triangle that Cardano had been following wasn’t a perfect Symmetrical Triangle, though, as it had a slight ascending bias to it. This means that a break toward the upside may have been more probable, although only slightly.

It now remains to be seen whether this move would grow into a 27% one that the Triangle’s height hints at or not. ADA Price At the time of writing, Cardano is floating around $0.64, up more than 4% in the last seven days. Featured image from iStock.com, charts from TradingView.com
Cardano has outperformed most of the market with a sharp 50% rally during the past week. Here’s what’s driving this run, according to on-chain data. Cardano On-Chain Metrics Have Lit Up Recently According to data from the on-chain analytics firm Santiment, a couple of activity-related metrics have spiked for ADA recently. The indicators in question are the Transaction Volume and the Whale Transaction Count. The first of these, the Transaction Volume, keeps track of the total amount of Cardano that’s becoming involved in transfers on the blockchain every day. This metric basically tells us whether the ADA investors have a high interest in trading the coin or not.

As the metric’s name implies, it measures the total number of transfers that these humongous investors are making on the network. More formally, it specifically tracks the transactions carrying a value of more than $100,000. Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Transaction Volume and the Whale Transaction Count for Cardano over the last few months: As displayed in the above graph, both of these on-chain indicators have shot up for Cardano recently, which implies activity across the board has risen on the network. This recent spike in activity has coincided with ADA’s sharp rally, which has put the cryptocurrency at impressive gains of more than 50% over the past week. Given the timing, it’s likely that the increased interest from the investors has played a role in the price surge. At present, the weekly Transaction Volume for Cardano is sitting at around $52 billion, which is a 7-month high for the metric. Similarly, the Whale Transaction Count has a value of 8,900, the highest in 6 months. From the chart, it’s apparent that ADA also saw a simultaneous surge in these metrics back in June. This previously elevated level of activity led to a 26% increase for the coin. Related Reading: Bitcoin Hashrate Falls Off, Miners Expecting Pause In Bull Run? Something to note, however, is that this last activity spike occurred alongside a bottom for the coin, while the recent one has come as the asset has been rallying. The current high interest in Cardano could certainly act as more fuel for the rally, but it could also very well turn into a profit-taking storm as investors’ gains balloon up. It only remains to be seen which scenario would follow for ADA in the coming days. ADA Price With positive returns of 12% during the last 24 hours, Cardano is currently the best performer among the top cryptocurrencies by market cap.

An analyst has explained how, if the historical pattern followed by the ADA price is to be believed, Cardano seems ready to go on a parabolic bull run. Cardano May Be Set For A Bull Run Based On Historical Trends In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has discussed what hints history may contain regarding where ADA’s price would go next from here. First, here is a chart shared by the analyst that shows the trend the cryptocurrency followed back in 2019: The pattern that the price of the asset followed a few years back | Source: @ali_charts on X From the graph, it’s visible that the asset had first consolidated inside a parallel channel during this period. A “parallel channel” in technical analysis (TA) refers to the region bounded by two parallel trend lines.

When consolidating inside the channel, the price is probable to find resistance at the upper end and support at the lower one. A break out of either of these lines can imply a continuation of the trend in that direction. As is visible in the chart, ADA managed to break out of this past parallel channel with a 75% surge. The asset then followed this rally up with a correction of around 56% before finally lifting off into a massive 4,095% bull run. Interestingly, just like in 2019, Cardano was stuck inside a similar parallel channel in 2023. The chart below shows this recent pattern for the cryptocurrency. Looks like the price of the asset recently broke out of its parallel channel | Source: @ali_charts on X As displayed in the graph, Cardano broke out of this latest parallel channel a while ago, this time with a rally of around 72%. Recently, though, the asset has lost this bullish momentum, as it has seen a drawdown of 50%. According to the analyst, however, this can, in fact, set the stage for a new bull run. History doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes! If that is the case for Cardano, we should be positioning ourselves for what’s coming, understanding that the recent price correction might just be one of the last buy-the-dip opportunities ADA will give you.

This is more about the long-term view, though, so where might the asset go in the short term? This may be answered by a signal that the analyst has shared in another X post.

It anticipates a one to four daily candlesticks rebound that could put an end to the ADA corrective phase.
