Cardano Reaches Bearish Exhaustion, Can Bulls Sustain the Upturn?

Cardano (ADA) is in a downtrend, trading at $1.29 as of press time. The cryptocurrency has consolidated above $1.18 support, but is fluctuating between the $1.18 and $1.40 levels.

The support at $1.18 was the previous low after the price collapsed on December 4. For over two weeks, Cardano has been trapped in a range at the bottom of the chart. 

If buyers break through resistance at $1.40 and $1.80, the market will rally above the moving averages. ADA price will be out of the downward correction. Cardano will resume its uptrend and regain its previous high at $2.40. Cardano will continue its current price action if the bullish scenario is invalidated. On the downside, selling pressure has eased as the market has reached the oversold zone.
