Really didn't see that coming but honestly, I think only a handful of people predicted this crash, if you are one of them, kudos to you.
Now, I won't even bother trying to find out why it happened, it is what it is. I think the weak stock market open led to this liquidation event and as you all know, crypto markets are extremely leveraged, so nothing we haven't seen many many times. It's really hard to predict these events but luckily they don't happen that often, so if you survived this crash you definitely did something right.
ETH dumped all the way down to 2200$ which is now our key level to look at. To the upside we have 2800 as our first big resistance but the real challenge would now be the 3k level when few days ago 3.4-3.6k was THE level to break but this crash puts everything into a different perspective and we must adapt to it.
I mapped out three possible scenarios of what COULD happen coming days. One being a super bullish scenario (blue line), a somewhat neutral and more likely scenario (black line) and a bearish scenario (red line).
Think they speak for itself, but I will give you a short explanatation:
Blue line (bullish): We close this day above ~2600-2700$ which will most likely indicate that the bottom is in.
Black line (neutral): For me the most likely right now, so basically a rather conventional scenario, where we would see ETH range between 2500-2700$ coming days and eventually break above 2800$
Red line (bearish): Retest 2800$ and see new lows, probably around the 2k level.
I really don't know at this point but if you asked me I would give the bullish scenario a 10-15% chance as we have seen something similar on a few alts already (TIA, Storj, Ondo)
As I said, I'm leaning towards the black line, so seeing another lower high around 2400-2500$ and from there we should see an attempt to break 2.8k
In all of these scenarios I see 3k as the biggest resistance ETH needs to break. I have no idea if it's going to happen, still too early but just wanted to give you an idea of what you can expect.
Stay safe!
