Cardano (ADA) has seen a remarkable performance over the week, surging over 10% and reentering the top ten cryptocurrencies by market capitalization list. Its recent price action has fueled a bullish sentiment among investors and market watchers, who believe the token might be near a rally toward $1.

Cardano Breaks Out To Reclaim Top 10 Spot

Cardano’s price has steadily declined after the March highs, registering a 42% drop in the last six months. During the Q1 rally, the token hit its highest price since 2022, reaching the $0.774 price range.

Since then, ADA has nosedived to pre-rally levels, disappointing some investors and market watchers. The crypto community has repeatedly slammed the project for a “lack of appeal” to the broader public. Additionally, many have criticized ADA’s “underwhelming” price action.

However, the token’s recent rally has sparked a bullish sentiment among some community members. Despite the early September market shakeouts, the cryptocurrency has registered a 10% surge from its monthly opening, seeing green numbers in the weekly and biweekly timeframes. Technical analyst Crypto Yapper noted Cardano’s recent performance. The analyst that ADA displayed a multi-month descending broadening wedge structure on its chart with multiple touch points on the top side and on the lower side.

Inside this structure, the cryptocurrency displayed a smaller falling wedge pattern with its upper trendline being tested again on Monday. The analyst stated that the $0.35 was the first crucial resistance level for the token. Claiming this key zone and breaking out of the falling wedge pattern could create more bullish action and move the price toward the upper line of the bigger bullish structure. On Monday, Cardano’s token reclaimed the $0.36 range, a level not seen in nearly a month. The surge sent ADA’s price toward the $0.37 resistance level, turning the $0.375 price range into a support zone on Tuesday morning.

The recent performance also pushed Cardano back to the top ten cryptocurrencies list after ADA’s market capitalization surged 6%, surpassing Tron (TRX) in the last 24 hours.

Analysts See New Price Targets For ADA

Today, Crypto Yapper noted that ADA broke above resistance as the cryptocurrency was a higher high on the daily chart. This performance “indicates a huge trend reversal for Cardano.”

However, he pointed out that to break above the descending broadening wedge, the token must reclaim its second key resistance level at $0.39. If successful, the breakout could target the structure’s higher price range of $0.52.

Other analysts also highlighted ADA’s performance and breakout, suggesting that the cryptocurrency has the potential for a 170% surge. Dan Gambardello out, “Cardano just went through a phenomenal throwback to a colossal triangle pattern.” To the analyst, “If crypto is about to enter a green October, I anticipate ADA will reclaim $1 with haste.” ADA is trading at $0.378, a 6.2% and 12.2% surge in the daily and weekly timeframes.
