ETH/USD – Market Returns To January 2018 Previous ATH

Key Resistance Levels: $1400, $1465, $1500, $1600.
Ethereum is now down by a total of 30% over the past seven days of trading. The cryptocurrency had spiked above $2000 only last week as it hit the upper boundary of the following marked ascending price channel. From there, the coin retraced, broke down the price channel and lost over $600 of its value.
It happened on Monday, that ETH price closed the daily candle beneath the ascending price channel, confirming the breakdown. It then continued to slide over the week until support was met at the previous ATH price, from January 2018, at around $1400 – $1440.
Today, with another 7% price drop, Ethereum lost the previous ATH price as it dropped to as low as $1315 on Bitstamp. Additionally, the price drop caused Ethereum to break beneath an ascending trend line that dates back to the start of the year. It has since bounced and is now testing the early February support at around $1358.
For ETH, it will be critical to maintaining the $1400 support on today’s candle close (at midnight UTC). The last time ETH’s daily closed below $1400 was on the first day of February.
ETH-USD Short Term Price Prediction
Looking ahead, if the bearish action continues and ETH can’t reclaim $1400, the first level of support lies at $1315 (today’s low), along with $1291 (.5 Fib level). This is followed by $1250 (downside 1.618 Fib Extension – purple), $1200 (100-days EMA), and $1173 (downside 1.272 Fib extension – orange).
On the other side, in the case of a bullish retracement beyond $1400, the first resistance now lies at $1465. This is followed by $1500, $1600, and $1681.
The RSI is now approaching extremely overbought conditions as it sits at 21, a level not seen since March 2020. This shows the bears are extremely overextended and the downtrend might reach exhaustion pretty soon.
ETH/BTC – Bears Push To 0.03 BTC lows
Key Support Levels: 0.03 BTC, 0.0295 BTC, 0.0284 BTC.
Key Resistance Levels: 0.0318 BTC, 0.0337 BTC, 0.034 BTC.
