On the daily chart, Ethereum price has formed a ‘Hamer’ pattern, which is a bullish reversal formation. The pattern forms when the market is oversold and looks for a rebound from the crucial support level. In addition, volumes also supported the technical set-up.
Now the price firmly broke the upward resistance of the 1 hour chart. This means the underlying force in the current price action.
For bulls, the first upward target is placed on the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $2,852.74. The Ethereum price will be encouraged to then test the psychological level of $3,000.
Rather, a change in bullish sentiment will spark another downward phase in the asset. Further downward movement is the immediate support at USD 2,500 followed by the February 22 lows at USD 2,300.
Technical indicators:
RSI: The daily Relative Strength Index was above the average line with a bullish bias. A rise in the indicator can be a positive sign for the price.
MACD: Moving average convergence divergence still hovered below the midline with a neutral outlook.
