What happens to Cardano after a 10% daily jump?
Since 2018, Cardano has shown a 10% daily jump 79 times. In the 77 cases old enough to score, the price was higher 7 days later 52% of the time, with a median move of +0.3%. On an ordinary day the median 7-day move for ADA is −0.8%.
No better than chance22
Once you allow for how many studies were run, a gap this large is luck about 80% of the time, so this signal has told you nothing reliable about the following week.
By holding period
| After | Cases | Higher | Median move | Middle half | Ordinary median | Gap | By luck | Proof score |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 day | 77 | 55% | +0.8% | −3.1% to +4.7% | −0.1% | +0.8% | 29% | 25 |
| 3 days | 77 | 61% | +1.9% | −3.6% to +5.9% | −0.3% | +2.2% | 12% | 53 |
| 7 days | 77 | 52% | +0.3% | −7.0% to +9.5% | −0.8% | +1.2% | 80% | 22 |
| 14 days | 77 | 53% | +1.2% | −11.2% to +15.8% | −1.1% | +2.3% | 78% | 23 |
| 30 days | 77 | 42% | −4.0% | −17.8% to +23.6% | −3.1% | −0.8% | 97% | 21 |
“Ordinary median” is the median move of ADA over the same number of days starting from any day. “Gap” is the signal's median minus the ordinary one. “By luck” is how often a gap at least that large comes from randomly chosen days, corrected for the 3,572 studies run at each holding period (for this study taken alone: 40%).
Holding it for 7 days
Dips and best points use each day's low and high, measured from the close on the signal day. Costs assume 0.3% for a round trip: a 0.1% exchange fee each way and 0.05% slippage each way.
Did it hold up over time?
Splitting the cases by date: in the earlier 46 the gap over 7 days was +5.6%, and in the later 31 it was −2.5%. The direction changed, which is what a pattern produced by chance tends to do.

The rule
Daily close at least 10% above the previous close. A double-digit gain in one day pulls in momentum buyers and fear of missing out.
Occurrences closer than 7 days to the previous one are not counted again. The signal is confirmed at the daily close (00:00 UTC) and returns are measured from that close. Full method.
