Ethereum Price Analysis

In the past few days, we discussed the chances of more downsides in Ethereum below the $170 support against the US Dollar. ETH did decline recently below $170 and weakened more than 7%.

The recent decline was such that the price even broke the $160 support area. Moreover, there was a close below $165 and the 100 hourly simple moving average. Finally, the price traded close to the main $150 support area and a low was formed near $153.

More importantly, bitcoin price is down more than 8% and broke many important supports such as $7,800 and $7,500. Looking at Ethereum, the price is currently recovering and traded above the $155 level.

There was a break above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $178 high to $153 low. However, the price is facing a lot of hurdles on the upside near the $162 and $165 levels. Besides, yesterday’s highlighted bearish trend line is intact with resistance near $165 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.

The 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $178 high to $153 low is also near the $165 level to act as a strong resistance. Therefore, Ethereum could face a strong resistance if it corrects towards the $165 area.

On the downside, the $155 and $150 levels are important supports. It won’t be easy for the bears to clear the $150 barrier. Thus, there are chances of a decent rebound in the near term above the $162 resistance.
