Cardano (ADA) was quoted at $0.2276273 in a snapshot last updated at 1:04 p.m. ET (17:04 UTC) on Oct. 21, below the $0.278 weekly trigger for a chart pattern. The price was up 2.21% over 24 hours. Crypto analyst Giannis Andreou’s cup-and-handle setup requires a weekly close above $0.278 followed by a successful retest of that level. His chart analysis lists conditional targets of $0.3633 and $0.3995, plus an approximate $0.416 target based on the cup’s depth. The pattern remains unconfirmed until the close and retest occur. The [earlier $0.278 breakout setup]() provides additional context. Analyst Brian McColl’s Oct. 19 analysis identifies $0.1894, near the Aug. 30 low, as a possible support area under a bearish scenario. The $0.278 trigger and $0.1894 support describe separate chart interpretations; neither analysis gives a deadline for either scenario. ## Links in this article - [earlier $0.278 breakout setup](https://www.tokenpost.com/news/investing/34072)
