Cardano’s Selling Pressure Drops 50% – Weekend Surge Expected?

Cardano hasn’t seen much price growth recently. It’s down about 4% in the last day and almost 9% in the last month, which mirrors the overall downturn in the cryptocurrency market. However, the recent timing of these price changes is worth paying attention to.

With the market entering a quieter weekend period – where trading volume is usually lower and prices can move quickly based on technical indicators – selling of Cardano has significantly decreased. At the same time, the price chart is starting to show signs of recovery. This leads to the question: might Cardano see a price increase over the weekend?

Bullish Divergence Suggests a Weekend Reaction Could Come Quickly

Looking at the 12-hour price chart, Cardano is showing a bullish divergence. This means the price is making lower lows, while the Relative Strength Index (RSI) – which measures how quickly prices are changing – is making higher lows. This pattern often suggests the price might soon increase.

From February 13th to March 6th, Cardano’s price decreased, but the Relative Strength Index (RSI) didn’t fall as much. This pattern often signals that a downtrend might be losing steam, as selling pressure starts to lessen.

This situation, looking at how buyers and sellers are interacting, shows that even though prices were still dropping, sellers were starting to lose their ability to drive prices down, while buyers were gradually taking advantage of the lower prices. These kinds of discrepancies usually resolve themselves quickly, particularly when there isn’t a lot of trading activity, like on weekends.

Essentially, when buyers respond to a positive sign, the recovery usually happens quickly, instead of gradually.

While positive momentum isn’t usually enough to cause prices to rise, recent blockchain data suggests another change is happening that could support the idea of a price recovery.

Profitability Bottom and 50% Drop in Selling Pressure Strengthen the Bounce Case

Recent data from the Cardano blockchain shows that a smaller and smaller percentage of Cardano coins are currently held by investors who bought them at a lower price – meaning fewer coins are currently ‘in profit’. When fewer investors are seeing a profit, it usually means there’s less pressure to sell those coins.

On March 4th, a similar pattern occurred: the metric fell to around 9.43% as Cardano was trading at $0.26. However, the price quickly recovered, rising to around $0.28 – an increase of about 8% – within just one day.

The metric has decreased once more, going from 11.3% on March 5th to approximately 7.03% recently. This new low point could potentially lead to a price increase. Simultaneously, the amount of selling activity on the network has significantly decreased. Specifically, the Spent Coins Age Band metric, which measures how long coins have been held before being moved, indicates a substantial drop in distribution activity.

The indicator reached its highest point on February 27th at around 171.42 million coins, but has since fallen to approximately 89.97 million – its lowest point this month. This means selling pressure has decreased by almost 50%.

In my research, I’ve noticed that when fewer coins are being moved around on the blockchain – meaning fewer people are potentially looking to sell – it often indicates that existing holders are content with the current price. This decrease in selling activity can then ease the immediate pressure on the coin’s supply in the market.

Cardano’s profitability and reduced trading activity suggest selling is slowing down. Now, all eyes are on key price levels to see if the cryptocurrency can recover over the weekend.

Cardano Price Levels That Could Decide the Weekend Move

Looking at the price chart, key support and resistance levels are identified using Fibonacci extensions based on recent price movements from February 11th to February 25th, and the subsequent dip on March 6th. Currently, ADA is trading at around $0.258, slightly above a support level of $0.255.

If buyers can hold the current price, the next likely price increase could reach around $0.270, which is about 5% higher than where it is now. This price point has previously prevented the price from going higher, especially earlier in March.

If the price of ADA rises above $0.270, it could reach $0.279. However, $0.279 has proven to be a resistance level, meaning previous attempts to break past it have failed.

Cardano needs to break above the $0.287 to $0.294 price level to show a significant and sustained upward trend, as previous attempts to rise have been stopped at this point.

If the price of ADA drops below $0.255, it could signal trouble for a potential recovery. Falling below that level might lead to a further price decrease towards $0.250 and would likely mean the recent upward trend is over.

Cardano might see a price increase over the weekend, based on recent positive signals like increasing buying interest, a low point in selling, and a reduction in selling pressure. However, this bounce might not be strong unless buyers can drive the price past key resistance levels.
