Cardano had a long-term bullish outlook as it traded above the mid-range after establishing and sweeping key highs and lows. Yet its short-term momentum was bearish, and a retest of the $0.149 support was likely. Monero dropped beneath a level of support and could head as low as $140 before the bulls step in. Basic Attention Token was headed toward the $0.212 level of support.

The range for ADA has its upper and lower boundaries at $0.173 and $0.13 respectively. When the price entered this range in late December, it formed a high and low for this range, then the first two weeks of December saw the price sweep both the high and the low.
While the short-term momentum for ADA is bearish, the price is above the mid-range, which coincides with the horizontal support level of $0.149.
Bears being unable to push the price beneath support is a bullish development. A retest of the mid-range is possible in the coming hours, followed by a move toward the $0.17 resistance.
The OBV showed mounting selling volume in early December, however, the past week has seen the buying volume increase.

Monero [XMR]

Like the majority of altcoins on the market, XMR also showed strong bearish pressure over the past few hours. The RSI showed a value of 38, and the price had recently lost the $149 level of support.
A dip to the highlighted liquidity pocket in the $139 zone was likely for XMR. Given its strong performance in recent weeks, a further drop may be unlikely. Hence this region can be used to build long positions.
Basic Attention Token [BAT]

The Directional Movement Index showed that the uptrend was replaced by a strong downtrend, as the +DMI (blue) and -DMI (pink) flipped positions on the indicator. The ADX (yellow) continued to soar to indicate a strong trend.
The price moved beneath the 50 SMA (yellow). Combined with the loss of the 50% Fibonacci retracement level at $0.225 to the bears, a further downside was likely for BAT, with $0.212 and $0.2 targets for sellers.
