Cryptonary's take

Even though ETH has pulled back a touch here, the outlook remains positive. ETH has broken out of a major downtrend line and is now retesting it as new support. Alongside this, the mechanic's setup is clean.

Even though we're expecting more subdued price action until the election, ETH looks like one of the better plays for a potential meaningful move to the upside.
