Cardano price in make-or-break
Cardano price shows signals that warrant concern as the bears may attempt to obliterate the $0.30 support zone. Since the start of the month, ADA, the self-proclaimed Ethereum killer token, fell by 25%, and since the decline, all bullish attempts to recover have been rejected. Now, a bearish penant pattern surrounds the ADA price, which could send the smart-contract token to sub-$0.30 price levels.
Cardano price currently auctions at $0.325. Like several top cryptos, the surged 8-day exponential moving average plays a key role in resistance against the bulls. The volume profile indicator shows a persistent tapered look which suggests high-cap players are sidelined and would rather join the next directional move rather than speculate on where the congestion zone will send the ADA price next.

If the market is genuinely bullish a persist, a rally toward the $0.39 congestion zone will be a key target for bulls to aim for. Such a move would result in an additional 22% increase in price.
Still, the pennant pattern surrounding the current ADA price will need to be invalidated before confidently aiming for higher targets. A breach above the $0.35 (above the 8-day exponential moving average) could induce the uptrend rally toward higher targets that bulls are hoping for.
