The Cardano indicator appears in relation to the data

Warning signs for ADA price are becoming more apparent, with the Daily Active Address (DAA) variance showing a negative reading of -43.3% at the time of writing. This metric, which tracks the relationship between an asset’s price movements and changes in its daily active addresses, has remained negative since September 7, indicating a worrying trend for Cardano.
The negative variance for DAA suggests that much of the rise in ADA this month, following interest rate cuts by the Fed, was driven more by broader market sentiment than by any specific demand for ADA itself. This lack of organic demand increases the likelihood of a sharp correction soon.

If ADA fails to break through the current resistance level at around $0.41, analysts expect a deeper correction, which could push the price to a yearly low of $0.27.

ADA Price Action: Testing the Crucial Supply Level
ADA is trading at $0.38, after a 10% decline from the 200 daily exponential moving average (EMA) of $0.41. This level has become a crucial resistance area, as the price has formed a new local high around this area.
ADA must reclaim the $0.41 level and push above the next major resistance level at $0.45 to confirm the uptrend over the coming weeks. Successfully surpassing these levels would signal renewed strength, giving bulls control and potentially sending prices higher.
However, if ADA fails to cross these critical levels, the altcoin could face further downward pressure. Failure to reclaim $0.41 and exceed $0.45 would likely result in increased selling, resulting in a potential 30% decline. In such a scenario, ADA would be at risk of revisiting its yearly low of around $0.27.
