Cardano price starts a new decline

After struggling to clear the $1.00 resistance area, Cardano started a new decline, like Bitcoin and Ethereum. ADA fell below the $0.9650 and $0.950 support levels.

The last high was formed at $0.9495 before the price fell. There was a move below the $0.920 support level. The price fell below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the swing low at $0.8628 to the swing high at $0.9495.

The first resistance is located near $0.9350. The next major resistance could be $0.950. If there is a close above the $0.950 resistance level, the price could start a strong rally. In the mentioned case, the price may rise towards the $1.00 region. Any further gains may call for a move towards $1,050 in the near term.

More losses in ADA?

If Cardano price fails to rise above the $0.920 resistance level, it may start another decline. Immediate support on the downside is near the $0.8950 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $0.8628 swing low to the $0.9495 swing high.

The next major support is near the $0.865 level. A downside break below $0.8650 could open the doors to a test of $0.820. The next major support is near the $0.8050 level where the bulls may emerge.
