Ethereum (ETH) is currently facing significant downward pressure, with its price declining by 3% over the past 24 hours. This bearish trend could push ETH’s price below the critical $3,000 price level.
This analysis examines the factors contributing to this likelihood.
Ethereum Sellers Re-Emerge
An assessment of the ETH/USD one-day chart has revealed that the coin’s moving average convergence divergence (MACD) indicator is forming a potential death cross. As of this writing, the coin’s MACD line (blue) is attempting to fall below its signal line (orange).
This indicator measures an asset’s price trends and momentum and identifies its potential buy or sell signals. A MACD death cross occurs when the MACD line (the shorter-term moving average) crosses below the signal line (the longer-term moving average), indicating a bearish trend or momentum reversal. This signal suggests that selling pressure is increasing, and the asset’s price could decline further.
ETH’s rising Aroon Down Line confirms this strengthening bearish pressure. It currently sits at 78.57%, confirming that the decline in ETH’s price is gaining momentum.
The Aroon Indicator evaluates the strength of an asset’s price trend through two components: the Aroon Up line, which reflects the strength of an uptrend, and the Aroon Down line, which reflects the strength of a downtrend. A rising Aroon Down line indicates that recent lows are occurring more frequently, signaling growing bearish momentum or the start of a downtrend.
ETH Price Prediction: Key Support Level To Watch
ETH currently trades at $3,333, resting above the support formed at $3,203. This level is crucial because a decline below it will cause ETH to exchange hands under $3000. According to readings from the coin’s Fibonacci Retracement tool, the Ethereum price will drop to $2,970 if this happens.
However, a resurgence in the demand for the leading altcoin will invalidate this bearish thesis. If this occurs, Ethereum will rally toward $3,500.
