Ethereum has
seen a 2% price rise over the past 24 hours, and it’s currently trading at
around $219. The cryptocurrency had managed to remain above a rising support
trend line, with its price increasing by a full 11% over the previous 6 days.
Ethereum
remains the second-largest cryptocurrency by market value, with a market cap of
$23.64 billion. The ETH price is still up by 37% over the past 3 months, making
it the strongest performer among the top five projects beyond Bitcoin.
Looking at
the ETH/USD 1-day chart:
Since our
previous ETH/USD analysis, the support at $202 and the rising trend line have
held very well, allowing ETH to rise to where it currently trades at the
resistance provided by the 200-day EMA at $220.
From above:
If the bulls can break above $220 and the subsequent resistance at $230, we can
expect immediate resistance at $235 provided by the 100-day EMA. This will be
followed by resistance at $240. Once ETH/USD has cleared this hurdle, higher
resistance lies at $250, $271, $279, and $298.
From below:
The nearest level of support lies at the rising trend line (around $205). This
is followed by strong support at $202 and $200. If the price breaks beneath
$200, further support is found at $193 (.786 Fib retracement), $178, $165, and
$152.
The trading
volume remains very low with no signs of increasing.
The RSI has
recently risen toward 50 as the bulls have attempted to gain control. However,
the Stochastic RSI suggests that the market may be extremely overbought as we
wait for a bearish crossover signal to confirm this.
Looking at
the ETH/BTC 1-day chart:
The
resistance at 0.022 BTC was too strong for the bulls, which caused ETH/BTC to
reverse and fall. The market has fallen along the contour of our steep
descending trend line, being unable to break above this level.
From above:
The nearest level of resistance lies at 0.021 BTC. Above this, higher
resistance is found at the upper boundary of the steep downtrend channel. If
the price can break above the channel, resistance lies at 0.02192 BTC, 0.0225
BTC, 0.023 BTC, and 0.02390 BTC.
From below:
The nearest level of support lies at the downside 1.618 Fibonacci extension
level of 0.02042 BTC. If the sellers push the price below 0.02 BTC, we can find
support at 0.01966 BTC, 0.01937 BTC, and 0.018507 BTC.
The RSI was
recently turned away from the 50 level, which confirms that the sellers are
still in complete control of the market.
