ambcrypto.com:

ADA managed to bag the spot of the fifth largest crypto with its recent gains after its market cap exceeded $49.4 billion over the past day. The bull rally initiated after the alt reversed from the crucial $1.12-mark support.

During the ascent, ADA tested the Point of Contol (red) that offered the highest liquidity for over three months near the $1.3-mark. After retesting it thrice, it rapidly grew by marking eight green candles out of the last 10 candlesticks.

While the altcoin noted a 42.41% weekly ROI, it pulled back from the $1.53-resistance. At press time, ADA traded at $1.525.

The RSI was still in an uptrend and eyed to retest the 78-resistance. Also, the CMF saw an exponential spike in money flows over the past day. Any close below the upper band of the Bollinger Bands would hint at a potential slowdown in the near term.

Over the past week, the double-bottom breakout on its 4-hour chart reversed from the $96.4-level. It found support at the 50% Fibonacci level. Now, the immediate testing point for bulls stood at the 50-SMA (cyan).
