Cardano Holds above $0.50 Support as Bears Threaten to Short

The price of Cardano (ADA) is in a sideways trend after the bulls bought the dips on May 12. Last week, the downtrend eased after it fell to the low of $0.40. On May 12, ADA dipped into oversold territory in the market. This attracted buyers who emerged from the oversold area and pushed prices up to previous highs.

The uptrend was halted at the $0.59 high as sellers were present in the $0.60 resistance zone. Cardano was pushed back from the recent high. Despite the rejection, buyers managed to defend the $0.50 price level. If ADA rises above the $0.50 support, it will break through the $0.59 resistance. The altcoin will continue to rise to the high of $0.90. On the other hand, Cardano will fall and regain the previous low at $0.40 if it loses the current support.
