ADA/USD
The price of ADA has been recovering from the last drop from $0.1614, bouncing on the Pivot S1 at $ 0.1408. The bears have lost momentum and now the price has been recovering with three consecutive green candles. It seems the price reacted to news from the Cardano Foundation that stated the company is releasing a new roadmap.
Although the EMA-100 appears at this moment as the resistance to break, added to that, the Central Pivot Point is very close to it. We should also consider that a new bearish pressure could send the price to look for the 0.50% Fib Retracement close to $0.1369.
