This week, the cryptocurrency market has witnessed significant bullish momentum. Bitcoin (BTC) surged from its Monday low of $89,000 to its current level above $103,000. Adding fuel to the rally, rumors suggest that President-elect Donald Trump may propose an “America-First Strategic Reserve” that includes altcoins like Solana and Xrp. These speculations have given a strong boost to altcoin prices.
Among the notable performers, XRP is already rallying after confirming a breakout and retest. Now, Cardano (ADA) is following suit, retesting a crucial breakout level, and potentially signaling a bullish continuation.
Retesting Key Breakout Level
After facing a correction from mid-December to the second week of January, Cardano (ADA) managed to break out of a bullish pennant pattern on January 16, pushing its price to a local high of $1.16. However, a slight market pullback brought ADA back to retest the breakout trendline.

Currently trading at $1.09, ADA is holding steady at this critical level. If the support holds, ADA could potentially rebound toward the $1.16 and $1.32 resistance levels, representing a possible gain of up to 21%. A strong move above $1.32 could open the door for further upward momentum.
Analyst Insights
Crypto analyst @ali_charts shared an interesting historical perspective on Cardano’s price action, highlighting a potential pattern. According to the analyst, after a 44% correction in 2021, Cardano began its second leg up in February of that year. Currently, ADA has experienced a similar 43% correction, which could indicate that its next leg up is just two to three weeks away.

If this pattern holds, the analyst predicts a possible rally toward $6, provided market conditions remain favorable.
What’s Ahead?
The broader cryptocurrency market recovery, spearheaded by Bitcoin’s recent bounce, has created an optimistic environment for altcoins like ADA. With the added excitement of President-elect Trump’s potential policy moves, ADA could be poised for another leg up. If the $1.09 support holds, traders should watch closely for a move toward $1.16 and beyond.
Final Thoughts
While ADA shows promising signs of bullish continuation, the market remains volatile. Investors should exercise caution and consider conducting thorough research before making any financial decisions.
