14th ranked Cardano reported a minor hike of 0.94 percent in the market as its price rose from $0.029 to $0.030. Cardano had a significant market cap of $783 million, but it was paired with an incredibly low trading volume of $81 million, suggesting a lack of activity in the market.

The Chaikin Money Flow or CMF indicated neutrality between capital inflows and outflows, whereas the Parabolic SAR hinted towards a bullish trend.

Amidst a lack of price movement, however, Cardano's Hoskinson recently announced that Cardano could become the best crypto-asset in 2020, hinting at superior optimism unshared by the rest of the community.
