He <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/alicharts\/status\/2105265460086522117\">said<\/a> open interest has declined 9% over the last week, from almost $2 billion to about $1.81 billion.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThis suggests traders are reducing leveraged exposure,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Martinez then turned to whale activity, which should serve as a clear bearish signal. According to him, large investors have offloaded 90 million tokens (worth around $22.5 million) since September 20, adding to the recent selling pressure.<\/p>\n<p>His third negative factor is the Tom DeMark Sequential indicator, which flashed a sell signal on ADA\u2019s daily chart on September 26. Martinez noted that the asset\u2019s valuation has plunged 10% since then and hinted that the correction may not be over yet.<\/p>\n<p>Subsequently, the market observer focused on $0.24, calling it the key mid-range support. He believes that losing that level could lead to a further drop to $0.21. At the same time, holding the lower boundary could present the next buying opportunity, targeting the channel top near $0.28.<\/p>\n<p>ADA\u2019s seasonality should also be mentioned.
