Cardano price ready to move higher
Cardano price crashed 37% between April 9 and 13, along with the entire crypto market. After this sudden spike in selling pressure alleviated, ADA slipped into a rangebound movement between $0.433 and $0.521.
As Cardano price hovers around the range low, investors can expect ADA to sweep the range low at $0.433 to collect the sell side liquidity resting below equal lows. This move might seem bearish at the time, but if it is followed by a quick and decisive recovery above $0.433, it would be a buy signal.
This range low sweep is a move often employed by market makers or smart money to trap retail investors in the wrong direction.

However, in a highly bullish case, ADA could attempt a retest of the daily resistance level at $0.576, constituting a 33% gain measure from $0.433.
