ADA Spot Data Shows Mixed Buying Pressure Amid $0.25 Rejection
Cardano (ADA)
ambcrypto.com reports Cardano is down 5% in the past 24 hours after rejecting the $0.25 resistance zone. The asset has rallied 20% over the past week and nearly 30% in a month despite this short-term setback. Selling pressure was not extreme, with Open Interest slumping 6.5% and spot CVD showing a slight decline. The price structure indicates higher lows since June, with $0.177 as the critical level bulls must defend. A move into the $0.23-$0.25 supply zone triggered heavy profit-taking and short liquidations from earlier in August. Momentum on the 4-hour timeframe is turning bearish, potentially leading to a retracement toward $0.19. Bulls need to see buying pressure ramp up as ADA approaches the $0.19-$0.20 demand zone.
