In response to the broader market sell-off, the Ethereum coin experienced an aggressive downfall in the third week of August, leading it to $1576. Such sharp drops are usually followed by a minor pullback to recuperate the bearish momentum if the prevailing trend remains intact.
However, for the past four days, the ETH price has been trading sideways indicating the selling momentum is still active denying the need for a pullback. This supply pressure could continue the downward trend in the near future.
A closure look in the 4-hour time frame chart shows the minor consolidation has shaped into an inverted pennant pattern. A bearish breakdown from the pattern’s support trendline will release build-up selling momentum and will likely push the price to the $1450 mark.

Can ETH Price Rise Back to $1800?
A bearish pennant pattern formation projects a high possibility for the Ethereum coin to continue the downward approach. However, a less likely yet possible breakout from the pattern’s resistance trendline will signal a potential pullback to retest the breached trendline of the channel pattern near $1800. The price sustainability below this trendline or breakout above it will determine the future projection for ETH.
