Tug of war between bulls and bears

ADA bears and bulls have been stuck in a support and resistance match-up over the past month. ADA’s bearish swing from the $0.4850 resistance broke past the $0.4161 level before finding support at the $0.3760 level. The $0.4161 level, now acting as a resistance level, stopped the bullish rally from the $0.3760 level on 1 May.
A re-test of the $0.3760 support and the bullish order block just above it saw prices sink further. Price once again found support at the key $0.3505 level on 11 May. Bulls rallied from this level again but the $0.3760 support now flipped to resistance has proven too hard to surpass.
As of press time, the RSI hovered under the neutral 50 mark with the OBV also in decline.
Consequently, going by ADA’s recent price action and history, a re-test of the $0.3505 level will see prices sink lower. A daily candle close below this support level could spur bears to target the March low of $0.3140.
Alternatively, prices could trade higher, if bulls clear the $0.3760 resistance level and close above it. This will see buyers push for the April highs of $0.4161 or $0.4580.
