- 2 ETH price has negatively crossed the 20-day EMA.
- 3 The year-to-date return of Ethereum is 57.91% while one week return is -5.77%.
ETH price gained bullish momentum after the formation of support at $1650 which led to a rise of roughly 23% in the span of a month. The bullish rally led to the formation of a July high at $2029.11. The cryptocurrency price could not sustain above $2000 and the candle retraced below the psychological level. After the high formation, there were a series of losing days and prices melted down below $1950.
The recent candles have been facing rejection at $1880 and the previous candle closed as a bullish candle. The current candle has turned bearish and is headed toward the low of the previous candle. If it can shatter the low of previous candle, it might melt toward $1860. Traders expected that $1900 will hold the price which turned out to be false. For the price to regain bullish momentum, ETH price needs to form strong support.
