Four Coins for the Longer Run – My PlanWhen it comes to crypto, I’m definitely not the “buy & hold to the moon 🚀” type of trader. I prefer realistic targets, good entries, and a clear plan.
That being said, there are a few coins where I’m willing to have more patience, aiming for a 3x or more return.
For the first three (ADA, ALGO, XDC), the ETF story could play a big role in the coming year. FET is a different case, but one I still like. Let’s go one by one.
ADAUSD
- After the ATH above 3 in 2021, ADA collapsed more than 90%, bottoming in 2023 near 0.23.
- That bottom marked the start of a long accumulation phase, followed by an upside breakout in Nov 2023.
- Each correction since then has formed higher lows (0.3 → 0.5), showing strength.
- July’s rise looks constructive, and last week price also broke the falling trendline.
📌 Plan:
Accumulate around 0.9 and below, with DCA reserve if we see 0.65–0.67 zone.
Target: 2.3 in the first phase. Above that, I’ll reassess for a possible run toward ATH.
ALGO
- ALGO’s drop was even harsher, losing more than 90% from its peak.
- Found bottom near 0.1, and despite the spike late last year, it’s mostly still sideways accumulation.
For me, this is exactly the kind of base-building I like to see before a real run.
📌 Plan:
Buy near 0.2, keep reserves for a DCA if it drops again to 0.1.
Target: at least 0.7, then I’ll evaluate if market conditions favor holding further.
XDC
- XDC is more speculative, but also more explosive.
- The structure shows that a 3x to 5x move isn’t unrealistic once momentum picks up.
- With potential ETF headlines in play, it could be a nice upside surprise.
📌 Plan:
First buy zone around 0.07, with DCA reserves at 0.045.
Target: 0.15 in the first stage.
FET – Not About ETFs, But Strong Potential
- Different case here – no ETF talks, but I like the project.
- Already holding from around 0.4.
- If price dips to 0.55, I’ll add more.
📌 Target: 2.0 USD.
Final Thoughts
I’m not aiming for x100 fairy tales. My strategy is simple:
- Enter at accumulation levels
- Use DCA wisely
- Take profits at realistic targets
ADAUSD trade ideas
ADA📉 Expected Scenario:
The price is expected to decline towards 0.813 – 0.814 (buy zone).
From there, a corrective rebound may occur towards 0.85.
The move could then extend further into the 0.877 – 0.893 red zone, which is considered the optimal area to re-enter short positions.
Any break below 0.81 would invalidate the bullish scenario and open the door for further downside.
Cardano – Accumulation Above Key PivotWe are currently seeing a phase of accumulation just above a major pivot level. Price has been consolidating within a tight range, suggesting that market participants are building positions.
The Volume Profile shows significant activity around this zone, confirming that a lot of volume has been exchanged here.
However, it’s important to note the liquidity gap just below the current range. If price breaks to the downside, there is very little volume supporting the order book in that region, which could lead to a very fast and sharp move lower. (Anchored volume profile of the last up trend)
$ADA Breakout and retestMy CRYPTOCAP:ADA Thesis simplified.
CRYPTOCAP:ADA was consolidating within a range $0.71-$0.85 (Approx) {REDBOX}
CRYPTOCAP:ADA successfully broke out of that range and rose to a price of $1.02 reaching the multi year descending resistance {ORANGE LINE}
CRYPTOCAP:ADA is now retesting the upper limit of the range and is holding well at the $0.90 {REDBOX UPPER LIMIT} and is now bound between the previous range and the multi year descending resistance.
The $1.00 is also a psychological barrier and CRYPTOCAP:ADA has demonstrated this exactly.
Last Cycle CRYPTOCAP:ADA moved from $0.12 - $1.28 once it broke out past the multi year descending resistance {ORANGE LINE}
My Target for this run once CRYPTOCAP:ADA breaks above this resistance {ORANGE LINE} is $3.50 before a correction to consolidate before moving higher into the Target area @ $6.50
My previous posts indicate a move to $4.50 which is still my thesis it is just focusing on a longer timeframe for the cycle end {APR-MAY2026}
This chart I am focusing on a more compressed timeline anticipating a cycle peak by end 2025.
I do not know how the market will react, and I suspect you don't either, I am looking at the possibility of a cycle top between end 2025 and end Q1 2026
this publication is the shorter timeline but still following the exact same data points as previous.
I hope this helps you design your own thesis out of ALL available information.
What are your thoughts?
Liminal
$ADA All is GoodOn the W timeframe I see a move to $1.60 with a correction to $1.30 before continuation to test ATH @ $3.09.
I expect the move to $1.60 and correction to $1.30 to be a short term, fast correction. This is based on the Fib reaching 1.618 from the previous high of $1.20 low of $0.54 and the inverse H&S pattern(pink)
I expect this as the market does not usually move massively without cooling off for brief periods.
I propose CRYPTOCAP:ADA will ultimately reach for $12.00 confluent with the multi year resistance in March (red line)
as long as the market continues to trend and Alt Szn hits. this will remain my thesis until proven otherwise.
Congrats to all that did not succumb to FEAR and FUD and are still printing.

ADA🔎 ADA/USDT Chart Analysis (4H – Binance)
Key Levels Highlighted:
Sell Zone: around 0.955$
Stop Loss: 1.020$ (above major resistance)
Downside Targets:
First support zone: 0.835 – 0.822$
Second, deeper support zone: 0.785 – 0.765$
Upside Target (if bullish breakout occurs): 1.10$
📊 Possible Scenarios:
✅ Bearish Scenario (as shown on the chart):
Price is currently testing 0.955$ resistance, which used to be a broken support.
As long as the price stays below 1.020$, probability favors a move down toward 0.835 – 0.822$.
If that zone breaks, the next target will be the 0.785 – 0.765$ demand area.
These zones are potential buy levels for a rebound.
✅ Bullish Alternative Scenario:
If the price closes above 1.020$ with strong momentum → the stop loss will be triggered.
In that case, the structure flips bullish, targeting 1.10$ as the first upside objective.
A breakout above 1.10$ may extend toward 1.18 – 1.20$.
📌 Key Notes:
The support areas (0.835 – 0.822$ and 0.785 – 0.765$) are strong demand zones.
The trading plan is based on selling at resistance and buying at support.
Risk management is crucial due to ADA’s high volatility.
Mid-term trend is still ranging/accumulation between 0.75$ – 1.10$.
✅ Summary:
Short entry: 0.955$
Take Profit 1: 0.835$
Take Profit 2: 0.785$
Stop Loss: 1.020$
If price breaks above 1.020$ → target becomes 1.10$.
Cardano ADAUSD Bullish Energy Build up?The ADAUSD remains in a bullish trend, with recent price action showing signs of a corrective pullback within the broader uptrend.
Support Zone: 8,690 – a key level from previous consolidation. Price is currently testing or approaching this level.
A bullish rebound from 8,690 would confirm ongoing upside momentum, with potential targets at:
10,200 – initial resistance
10,800 – psychological and structural level
11,560 – extended resistance on the longer-term chart
Bearish Scenario:
A confirmed break and daily close below 8,690 would weaken the bullish outlook and suggest deeper downside risk toward:
8,300 – minor support
7,910 – stronger support and potential demand zone
Outlook:
Bullish bias remains intact while the ADAUSD holds above 8,690. A sustained break below this level could shift momentum to the downside in the short term.

Cardano ADA loading upI am a perma ADA bull. sorry. but at least im giving you a preface.
This coin looks prime for a pump.
3 green days when rising above ichimoku cloud (very strong positive sign)
golden cross
formation created and validated
my trading plans and goals
---------------------------------------------------
load up ADA in this formation
if we break below, BUY BUY BUY HARD, I WILL LIQUIDATE SOME ASSETS TO BUY
----(and then hold as long as golden cross doesnt reverse)
if we break above, then we identify levels where we sell. but we do not want to waste our time dreaming of what we will earn if we do not validate upward trend.
--------------------------------------------------
personal statement:
whale holder, approx 80% of my ADA is staked. I probably will not sell the staked amount this bull run and will continue to hold.
ADA/USD – Attempting Recovery Above SMA200🟢 LONG above $0.9351 – target $0.9600+
Cardano is consolidating just under the 200 SMA ($0.9351), with RSI at 52 showing improving momentum. Price bounced strongly from $0.8957 support, and a breakout above $0.9351 could open the way to $0.9600.

Cardano Bulls Hold Control, Eyeing Breakout Above $0.95
Daily close above $0.95 with volume → confirms breakout continuation.
Upper BB expansion with price riding along it → indicates strong trending market.
Holding above $0.85 (BB midline) → confirms bulls remain in control.
ADA/USD daily chart favors a bullish bias with trend strength intact. If price can reclaim and hold above $0.95, expect a push toward $1.00–$1.05. Holding above $0.85 keeps the uptrend structure valid.
Up to $1 - ADA weekly update August 13 - 19thWe are currently at the end of Primary Wave 1, specifically completing Intermediate Wave 5. This will be followed by Primary Wave 2.
The liquidity heatmap indicates a growing concentration of liquidity below the current price, which, similar to the Polkadot setup, is likely to be targeted during the formation of Wave 2. My target for Intermediate Wave 5 is the 1.618 Fibonacci extension, as this level coincides with a significant cluster of resting orders and the psychologically important $1.00 mark.
Funding rates remain steadily positive, and open interest has continued to rise, signaling a stable uptrend. This also suggests that market participants are moderately willing to take on risk, while excessive euphoria is not yet present.
In summary, I am targeting the $1.00 level for Intermediate Wave 5 and will be looking for short entry opportunities from that area to position for Primary Wave 2.
$ADA lookin' goodBottom Line Up Front (B.L.U.F)
CRYPTOCAP:ADA looking strong
If you have followed my thesis, we are still on track and on time
Beware of the FUD, FUD always presents itself when haters are hating. Recently there have been articles slamming the lack of pump as ADA price has not "skyrocketed" after IOG being awarded 70M from treasuries to conduct system upgrades. This is plain non sense, it takes time to correctly liquidate the tokens ( which is underway ) and to complete the upgrades ) this is pure manipulation by authors and publishers
There have been glitches if the Glacier program: as expected, most glitches and frustrations are due to cold wallet manufactures NOT upgrading their software to allow for the larger sizes of data required for the Glacier, this is not a native problem but isolated issues with cold wallet products who have not done their duties to support their customers.
Cardano has never played into the Manipulators game and has always acted transparently and fair, that makes a bit of an uphill battle as the masters of the market prefer guaranteed positions for quick and huge gains. follow the narratives and see the MOTIVES.
The positives
if you are a y o r o i user they had by far the most seamless integration ALL IN WALLET, compliments to Cardano for that, which displays the quality reliability and ease of use native to Cardano.
Cardano CRYPTOCAP:ADA holders will receive CRYPTOCAP:ADA and $NIGHT for staking ( once the Midnight Network is live and the thaw has happened.
ETF approval nears.
Fundamentals are strong, Nothing significant to report (NSTR) there.
I am sitting back and enjoying the ride.
all of this is my opinion, NFA, DYOR, let me know what you think?

We are moving - Cardano weekly update August 6 - 12thCardano appears to have completed a clean Wave 2 correction and is now forming the first 1-2 setup within a larger impulsive move to the upside. From an Elliott Wave perspective, this suggests we are at the very beginning of a broader bullish development. Structurally, the chart aligns across multiple degrees of trend: we are currently within Cycle Wave 3, Primary Wave 1, and Intermediate Wave 3 — a highly favourable configuration for strong upside momentum.
The recent retracement reached the 0.5 Fibonacci level, where price reacted strongly and formed a well-defined bullish order block. This confluence between Fibonacci support and structural demand reinforces the idea that the local bottom is likely in place. The move off the lows also began with a clear five-wave advance, indicating that an impulsive structure is developing.
While an alternative scenario is shown on the chart — suggesting a possible deeper correction — this is considered low probability. The main reason this alternative exists is the relatively short time duration of the Wave 2 correction, which might appear shallow compared to expectations. However, given the structural symmetry, the clear order block, and the impulsive reaction from support, the primary bullish scenario remains heavily favoured.
Additional confluence comes from sentiment and derivatives data. Funding rates are still in negative territory but are turning upward, signalling a potential shift in market positioning toward longs. At the same time, open interest is increasing — an encouraging sign of growing participation and conviction in the current move.
The liquidity heatmap currently shows significant clusters both above and below the current price, making the liquidity picture overall neutral. However, this also implies potential for strong directional movement should one side be taken out decisively. Overall, the technical and sentiment-based evidence points to a structurally sound bullish setup with limited downside risk, so long as the current low remains protected.
ADA/USD – Blocked by the BridgeCardano pushed into local resistance at 0.7300–0.7350, which previously acted as key support and now flips to potential rejection. The price remains below the 200 SMA, putting it under bearish pressure despite the latest rally. RSI sits above 56, indicating bullish momentum—but without a structural reclaim above 0.7350, continuation is uncertain. This is a classic range rejection setup unless bulls break and close above that key level.
🟢 LONG bias only above 0.7350 – reclaim the range.
🔴 Otherwise, watch for bearish rejection and lower support at 0.7160.
