Cardano (ADA) Highlights ADA is trading inside an ascending channel. There is resistance at 640 satoshis. Technical indicators have yet to show any weakness.Price action trader @PostyXBT warned of an impending breakout by tweeting an ADA price chart showing the price at a significant resistance area. In addition, he stated that he is so bullish on ADA’s prospects that he is considering buying at the resistance area instead of waiting for the flip.
$ADA
I'm ready for the break out here.
You know I'm bullish when I start setting bids below resistance rather than waiting for the flip.
Sometimes when things are this bullish, we miss the flips.

Current BreakoutOn January 28, the ADA price broke out from the 540 satoshi resistance area and has been increasing since. At the time of writing, it was trading inside the closest resistance area, which is found at 640 satoshis.
The price has been at this level several times since February 8 but has failed to reach a close above it. If the daily were to close at the current level or higher it would mark the highest price close since July 2019.
There were several hours left until the daily close, so it is possible that the price creates a similarly long upper wick and decreases towards support.
Technical indicators have not shown any weakness that would suggest the price will decrease.
While the daily RSI is overbought, it has yet to generate any bearish divergence. In addition, the previous wick highs near the resistance line were outside of the scope of the upper Bollinger band, something that is not the case currently.
So, we are presuming that the price is in an upward trend.
Ascending ChannelIn the short-term, the ADA price is trading inside an ascending channel.
It is currently right at the confluence of the resistance line of the channel and the resistance area.
While there was a bearish divergence in the RSI, it recently broke out from its descending trend-line, which negates it to a degree.
ADA Trade SetupsThe tweet states that @PostyXBT wants to enter the trade prior to breaking out from the resistance.
That would mean entering near 645 satoshis (white line). Using a target at the next resistance area at 720 satoshis, that would be a 20% increase from the current price. One issue with this using this entry point would be that the optimal level to place a stop loss would be below the ascending support line at 606 satoshis, an almost 6% below the current price.
Another method would be to wait until the ADA price falls to the ascending support line. While this is not certain to occur, it would present the highest R:R ratio since the stop loss of 606 satoshis is only 2% below the entry price (blue line). So, while losses would be limited, you risk the chance of missing out on additional profits.
The final method would be to wait until the price breaks out and attempt to buy the retracement at around 665 satoshis (red line). In this case, the stop loss would be moved upwards below the breakout level at 634 satoshis.
The full setup is posted in the table below:
Strategy Entry Stop Loss Target Risk:Reward Buy Immediately 645 606 720 3.5 Wait For Decrease 615 606 720 12.8 Buy After Breakout 665 636 720 4.5
