Cardano Price Prediction — ADA Eyes $0.42 as SuperTrend Flashes Buy Signal

Highlights:

• Ali Charts has predicted that Cardano could be on the verge of reclaiming $0.42 if conditions remain favorable.
• The analyst said his forecast stems from the SuperTrend indicator, which has proven to be reliable in past market cycles.
• ADA continues to trade around the $0.265 level as bearish sentiment persists. 

Renowned crypto market analyst, Ali Charts, has predicted that Cardano (ADA) is gearing up for a major price rally. In an X post on Thursday, the analyst noted that his forecast was based on a new signal from the SuperTrend indicator, a tool he described as very reliable in tracking Cardano’s major price changes over time. This same indicator flashed a sell signal in September last year, shortly before ADA’s price slipped by approximately 73%. After months of weakness, the indicator has changed direction and finally flashed a buy signal, suggesting ADA might be preparing for a major recovery. 

Cardano $ADA could be about to kickstart a new bull rally!

The SuperTrend indicator has been my most accurate tool for anticipating Cardano’s long-term shifts. I’ve been tracking it closely since September 25, 2025, when it flashed a sell signal that perfectly timed the start of… pic.twitter.com/QMV1kaN0Aq

If buyers take control of the market, ADA’s first target could be the $0.33 resistance level. However, a stronger buy momentum could push ADA’s price even higher, with the next major target sitting around $0.42. Ali added that Cardano must stay above the $0.25 support zone for the bullish prediction to remain valid. He warned that a drop below this support could weaken the recovery phase and eventually slow down any possible price rally.

Ali Charts stated:

“If the momentum sustains, my secondary target is $0.42. As long as the $0.25 support holds, my bullish outlook remains intact. If we lose that floor, the recovery is delayed.”

Whales Continue to Accumulate ADA as the Asset Eyes $0.42 Price Target

Santiment, an on-chain crypto intelligence platform, reported that faith in Cardano has remained strong despite current declines. In an X post on Wednesday, the on-chain firm stated that large ADA investors have been accumulating the token since December 2023. In addition, wallets with at least 1 million tokens now hold 25.09 billion ADA, representing 67.47% of ADA’s current supply. This is the highest accumulation ever recorded since July 2020. “Although the asset has lost -71% of its market cap over the past 9 months, whales appear to be content with adding more tokens,” the analytical firm added.
