Ethereum price looks pessimistic to neutral in today’s session. ETH holds near the critical trading level which could be a make-or-break situation for the investors. After testing the highs of $1,686.82 in the previous session the bulls failed to capitalize on the gains.
As of publication time, ETH/USD is exchanging hands at $1,541.37, down 1.41% for the day. The second largest cryptocurrency by market cap holds the 24-hour trading volume at $19,882,271,155 with marginal gains.
It seems the range-bound movement is expected to continue and the investors are waiting for confirmation on the macro side of the economy. In a broader market, the superlative U.S dollar exerts pressure on cryptocurrencies.
On the daily chart, the Ethereum price on August 26, gave a breakdown of a bearish “Head & Shoulder” Pattern, breaking down the neckline support, with rising volumes compared to previous average volumes.
The neckline of support is between $1,578 to $1,610. The price takes rejection on a pullback, and faces heavy resistance at 61.8% Fibonacci retracement, along with the 50-day exponential moving average.
Now, the neckline act as a resistance, which was earlier acted as a support. If the price sustains below $1,490, then there is a higher chance Ethereum bears could drag the price toward $1,330.
On the four hourly charts, Ethereum bears took the charge after the price gave a breakout of a “Rising Wedge” pattern. The rising wedge pattern is a bearish chart pattern that signals an imminent breakout to the downside. In this, the price action temporarily trades in an uptrend (the higher highs and higher lows). Two trend lines (support and resistance) are converging. The decrease in volume as the wedge progresses towards the breakout.
Currently, the price has taken support near $1,490, If this level broke with good volumes, then we can expect a fall of up to $1,330.

The nearest support is $1,490, whereas the nearest resistance is $1,600. There is a higher probability of the price to breaks its support. “Sell on rising” opportunity is the best course of plan we can go with.
On the other hand, a spike in buying orders could result in invalidating of the bearish outlook, if the price closes above the $1,600 level. And the price can move higher toward $1,700.
Ethereum is bearish to neutral on all time frames. Below $1,490 closing on the hourly time frame, we can put a trade on the sell side.
