Market participants believe that any possible spike in buying interest will likely push the price of Ethereum to retest the psychological level of $3,600. In addition, if buyers manage to topple this barrier in a support zone, the price could try to recoup the horizontal resistance line of $4,000.
ETH is moving in a rising wedge, a bearish continuation pattern. If the price closes below the horizontal support zone of $3,000. This also coincides with the break of the bottom trendline of the pattern. The first downward target is placed in a USD 2,800 support zone, the level last seen in September.
However, a breakdown of the said level could put a potential downside to the $2,324 barrier. If a daily candlestick closes below this significant figure, it would set a lower low and invalidate the short term bullish outlook for the pair.
Technical indicators:
RSI: The Daily Relative Strenght Index (RSI) is trading at 62, still below the overbought zone indicating the market is far from overheating.
MACD: The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator has just crossed the midline with a bullish crossover. Any increase in the indicator can open up new buying opportunities.
