## Introduction 
Cardano’s price performance was affected by the market wide pessimistic sentiment experienced during the recent months.

However, there is growing hope that the crypto asset will perform impressively during Q4, 2024 due to changes in global macroeconomic conditions.

Basically, the <a href="/id/price/cardano-ada" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Cardano price</a> correction started a few months after it recorded a yearly peak of $0.77 in January. At the time of writin, ADA is selling at $0.35 after gaining by 3.4% within the last 24 hours.

The above diagram shows an ADA bullish trend. However, as the tip of <a href="/id/price/the-graph-grt" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">the graph</a> shows ADA might have entered a short-term distribution phase. Despite the current 7-day depressed market, ADA had a strong ending during last week as the following graph shows.

ADA Price Action – TradingView

The above image denotes ADA bullish outlook since there is a doji followed by bullish engulfing candlestick pattern. Since this pattern is a strong bullish reversal signal it indicates the possible end of a downward correction and the onset of a major upward price movement. According to ADA market analysis this is an indication of sustained upward momentum which may turn into a long-term rally.

A possible Cardano price rally has been backed by several bullish indications. For example, recently there has been an increase in ADA’s active addresses. During the beginning of September ADA’s active addresses surpassed 150,000 before dropping to around 120,000. However, this metric has risen past 130,000 again, showing a rise in retail investor interest in the asset. The following graph shows the recent changes in ADA’s active addresses.

A rise in open interest and price indicates that investment in the asset has been increasing. Such a situation shows that the cryptocurrency may experience steady growth within the foreseeable future unless there is a dramatic change of the dominant crypto investment strategy.

## Are MVRV Ratio and RSI the Warning Signs for Cardano Investors?
Irrespective of ADA’s recent strong price action the <a href="/id/price/ethereum-eth" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Ethereum</a> killer may face a strong Cardano resistance level which may stall further gains. At the same time, Santiment shows that Cardano’s MVRV ratio is within a danger zone. This means that the Cardano selling pressure has been rising. Presently, its 30-day MVRV ratio has reached 13%, indicating that many [ADA investors are within the profit zone](https://www.gate.io/how-to-buy/cardano-ada "ADA investors are within the profit zone"). Historically, the ADA investors sell their holdings when its MVRV ratio is between10% and 18%. This often leads to Cardano profit taking which may force its price to fall. The next graph shows Cardano’s MVRV ratio.

Cardano MVRV Ratio - Santiment

When the MVRV enters a danger zone that indicates an end to the asset’s bullish run which may result in a minor correction or a prolonged downtrend. As a result, the bullish Cardano market momentum may decrease if the situation worsens.

In addition to the rising MVRV ratio ADA is also in an RSI overbought market condition. These two Cardano market indicators show a strong possibility of a bearish reversal which may increase Cardano investment risks. For example, this may result in large scale ADA liquidations.

As observed on the diagram ADA RSI is within an overbought market state. This may soon trigger a market cooling-off period.

However, soon afterwards ADA retraced, targeting $0.364, a key support level. And indeed, it managed to fall below that price line as it is fluctuating around $0.35. However, if the bulls remain aggressive the ADA price target will be $0.44.

## How Profit-Taking Strategies Could Affect Cardano
