Cardano trades below $0.22 after failing to sustain a move above its 50-day EMA.<\/span><\/li>\n
ADA\u2019s long-to-short ratio stands at 0.79, approaching its lowest reading in more than a month.<\/span><\/li>\n
Negative funding rates indicate increased demand for bearish derivatives exposure.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Cardano remained under pressure on Thursday, trading below $0.220 after buyers failed to sustain the previous day\u2019s recovery above the 50-day Exponential Moving Average.<\/span><\/p>\n
The rejection leaves ADA below its 50-day and 200-day EMAs, maintaining a bearish near-term outlook. Price is now hovering just above the 100-day EMA around $0.220, placing immediate support within reach.<\/span><\/p>\n
Weak derivatives positioning and subdued momentum suggest buyers have yet to establish enough strength to reverse the corrective trend.<\/span><\/p>\n
CoinGlass data showed <\/span>Cardano\u2019s long-to-short ratio<\/span> at 0.96 on Thursday, nearing its lowest level in more than a month.<\/span><\/p>\n
The reading indicates a greater share of short positioning among the accounts measured, reflecting caution about ADA\u2019s recovery prospects.<\/span><\/p>\n
Funding rates reinforced that picture. Cardano\u2019s rate turned negative on Wednesday and stood at -0.0025% on Thursday, meaning short-position holders were paying longs.<\/span><\/p>\n
Together, the readings point to a bearish tilt in derivatives positioning. They do not guarantee further losses, but they provide little confirmation of renewed bullish conviction.<\/span><\/p>\n
CryptoQuant\u2019s summary data also indicated selling pressure across Cardano markets. The platform identified large whale orders and heating conditions in futures trading, alongside sell-side dominance in both spot and futures markets.<\/span><\/p>\n
Large orders alone do not establish direction. However, their presence alongside stronger selling activity adds to the cautious backdrop as ADA struggles beneath overhead resistance.<\/span><\/p>\n
A stronger recovery would require buyers to absorb that supply and sustain price gains beyond nearby technical barriers.<\/span><\/p>\n
ADA drops below $0.220 as momentum remains weak<\/h2>\n
Cardano\u2019s daily momentum indicators continue to favor caution. The Relative Strength Index remains in the low-40s, below the neutral 50 threshold.<\/span><\/p>\n
Meanwhile, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence remains negative, suggesting that bearish pressure may be easing without a confirmed reversal.<\/span><\/p>\n
The first support to watch is the 100-day EMA near $0.220. A sustained break below that level would bring the $0.210 area into focus.<\/span><\/p>\n
If selling extends through $0.210, the chart points to a deeper support region around $0.170. That remains a downside scenario dependent on a breakdown of the nearer support levels.<\/span><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
On the upside, the 50-day EMA around <\/span>0.228\u2013<\/span>0.230 forms the first recovery barrier. A sustained move above that zone would ease immediate pressure and shift attention toward horizontal resistance near $0.236, followed by the 200-day EMA around $0.240.<\/span><\/p>\n
Further resistance lies near $0.250, with $0.300 a more distant level should a broader recovery develop.<\/span><\/p>\n
For now, ADA\u2019s ability to hold $0.220 remains central to its short-term outlook as bearish derivatives positioning and weak momentum limit recovery attempts.<\/span><\/p>\n
Key takeaways Cardano trades below $0.22 after failing to sustain a move above its 50-day EMA. ADA\u2019s long-to-short ratio stands at 0.79, approaching its lowest reading in more than a month.
