The Ethereum price has been following an ascending support line since Jan. 2, 2020. The recent decrease served to validate the support line for the fourth time, and the price created a long lower wick and moved upward. The decrease also validated the 50-day moving average (MA). Besides this support line that suggests the price will increase, a bullish cross between the 50- and 200-day MAs transpired on Feb. 16. So, the price is expected to move toward the top of the short-term range discussed in the  previous section.

Even more, this bullish reversal pattern has been combined with bullish divergence in the RSI. Therefore, the price is expected to increase and eventually reach the resistance area at $248, which was the previous breakdown level. ETH Double Bottom To conclude, the Ethereum price has completed a double bottom and is expected to move upward toward the next resistance area at $248.
