Technical analysis

  • Overall, it is a really interesting chart with prices respecting key levels.
  • The price was rejected on the underside of the uptrend line, and the horizontal resistance was at $3,967.
  • Price has since pulled back to the low $ 3,00,0, and it has been mostly range-bound between the horizontal support of $3,280 and the horizontal resistance of $3,480.
  • A break out of $3,500 likely sends the price swiftly back to $3,700.
  • The RSI is in the middle territory at 47, but it is breaking above its moving average. This could see price follow through a push up to $3,700 in the immediate term.
4. Ethereum daily chart with key levels at 3,280 and 3,480, RSI nearing bullish breakout zone.
  • Next Support: $3,280
  • Next Resistance: $3,480
  • Direction: Neutral (Bullish)
  • Upside Target: $3,700
  • Downside Target: $3,280

Cryptonary's take

ETH looks good here for a short-term stab higher, potentially testing into $3,700. For this, we're looking for a breakout of $3,480 to $3,500, which we think we'll get/see in the coming days.
