On the 4-hour chart, we can see the Cardano price rejecting further upside today at $1.38 as another test of downside likely needs to be made first.

After a strong rally last week, the Cardano price saw a new swing high set at $1.60. However, a quick reversal followed, with an initial drop of around 13 percent to the $1.38 previous support.
