Ethereum (ETH) has recently experienced a halt in its upward movement, having reached a high nearly of $3,974. This period of consolidation came on the heels of an impressive 25% increase in its price value, which was triggered by a breakout from a descending triangle pattern on the daily chart. Despite a minor pullback from its peak, ETH is now nearing a significant resistance level at $3,780.
Should ETH manage to surpass and maintain above this resistance, it could probably indicate a bullish trend to resume, potentially leading to additional gains. Meanwhile, the technical indicators on the daily chart largely suggest a positive outlook. The 50-day EMA has provided support, that implied that the bullish momentum may continue.
Moreover, the ongoing golden crossover between the 50-day and 200-day EMAs is itself a strong signal of a optimistic long-term trend. Conversely, the MACD showed a bearish crossover, highlighting some caution to keep (DYOR).
The RSI having fallen below the 50 level and the 14-day SMA, that suggests a momentary weakening in momentum. For confirmation of a sustained uptrend, it would be prudent to observe the RSI's recovery above the 50 mark.
Critical support levels for ETH are identified at $2,800 and $3,100, while resistance levels to consider are at $3,600 and $3,980. The interaction between these technical indicators and price points will be key in ascertaining the future direction of ETH.
