- The MACD indicator forecasts a bearish continuation
- The intraday trading volume in Ether is $8.05Billion, indicating a 39.5% loss

Responding to the Bitcoin flash drop beneath the $4500 support, the Ethereum(ETH) price turned down from the $3600 resistance. The minor correction tumbled the altcoin by 16%, bringing it to $3000 psychological support.
Furthermore, the buyers struggled to sustain above the local support, creating a narrow range. However, this consolidation ended in sellers’ favor as the coin price breached the $3000 mark on 22nd April.
The sustained selling pressure may sink the ETH price by another 5%, bringing it to $2800 support.
Moreover, an upcoming support trendline may strengthen the $2800 support zone and stall the ongoing correction.
Global In/Out of the Money metric
The Global In/Out of the Money (GIOM) on-chain metric suggests for the current Ether price($2918), 69.84% of ETH holders are in profit, whereas 26.8% of holders are in loss.
The nearest green cluster with a mean value of $2672 indicates a significant Area of Interest(AOI) which could help buyers revert the ongoing correction.
On the flip side, the red cluster of $3065 accentuates the importance of this chart level.
Technical Indicator
The MACD indicator shows a falling trend of the fast and slow lines slipping into the negative territory with a considerate growth in bearish histograms. Hence, the indicator forecasts a further continuation of the bearish trend.
The 20 DMA freefall is ready to crack below the 50 DMA to achieve a bearish alignment and signal a selling spot.
