Though, this pattern is a bullish continuation pattern, until the downsloping trendlines remain intact, the short-term trend for ETH will remain bearish. Currently, the coin price faces overhead supply pressure at a downsloping trendline indicating sellers may continue the downward trend.

During the mid-week, the Ethereum price projected a sharp reversal from the $1820 mark, which pushed the coin’s market value by 3.7%. The coin price currently trades at the $1886 mark and showed another failed attempt from the flag pattern.

In the 4-hour time frame chart, the ETH price showed a long-tail rejection at the resistance trendline indicating the overhead supply remains high. This rejection suggests a suitable possibility for a bearish reversal which may set the coin price for another 4% fall to hit $1800.

A 4-hour candle closed below the $1837 mark which is the low of the aforementioned rejection candle would give better confirmation for potential downfall.

Is Ethereum Price Ready to Hit $2000?

Under the influence of the flag pattern, the overall trend for Ethereum price remains bullish. Depending on the current sentiment of the market, the ongoing correction may prolong, but the buyers are poised to break the overhead trendline. A breakout above the resistance trendline will signal the continuation of the prior uptrend and more likely push the prices to $2000, followed by $2130. 

• Exponential Moving Average: Amid the current correction, the 20-and-50-day EMA acted as an important pullback support.
• Moving Average Convergence Divergence: The MACD slope(blue) wobbling above the signal line(orange) reflects the overall trend as bullish.
