NewsletterEthereum Price Analysis: ETH Price Approaches 0.5% Fibonacci Retracement On Weekly Chart
ETH price shows a movement that depicts the bearish undercurrent. Following, Thursday’s aftermath the price took some breather below $2,700. However, the buyers are advised to be cautious as the price is still under pressure and further lower movement cannot be ruled out.
- ETH price fell for the third straight day on Saturday amid sustained selling momentum.
- Expect more losses if the price closes below the 0.5% Fibonacci Retracement level on weekly basis.
- The asset locked more than 5% weekly losses as trades below $2,700.
ETH price consolidates
On the weekly chart, the ETH price has formed two lower lows extending from $48,000 to $35,000 since November whereas only one swing low at $2,159 in January. Analyzing further, the price remains pressured below the 50-day EMA (Exponential Moving Average) at $2,930.
In addition to that, the price dwindles near the 0.5% Fibonacci retracement level at $2,628. The trading volume has been consistent with the fall in the price. Looking at mentioned arguments, we expect ETH to produce one lower low this time.
To do so, two things would be required, one a weekly close below $2,500, and the breakage below $2,159. If that happens then get ready for $1,700 in the medium to short-term.
However, things look quite pessimistic for the second-largest cryptocurrency a shift in the bullish sentiment would counter the prevailing bearish sentiment. A spike in buy orders could push the price to test the 50-day ema at $2,969. This might fuel the investor’s demand for $3,000.
As of press time, ETH/USD holds at $2,680, down 0.43% for the day.
