Cardano Price Analysis

The price broke the $0.1600 support level and settled below the 55 simple moving average (4-hours). ADA declined below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $0.1230 swing low to $0.1740 swing high.
It even spiked below the $0.1500 support, but the bulls remained active near $0.1450. The 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $0.1230 swing low to $0.1740 swing high is also acting as a decent support.
On the upside, the price is facing a strong resistance near the $0.1600 level. There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $0.1580 on the 4-hours chart. If there is an upside break above the trend line and $0.1600, the price could rise steadily towards the $0.1700 resistance.
