In the last two weeks, the Ethereum price witnessed high volatility, a sideways trend resonating above the support trendline of the megaphone pattern. This chart is a sign of increasing uncertainty among market participants which leads to rising price swings. 

On August 2nd,  the coin price gave a bearish breakdown from the lower trendline of the chart setup. This breakdown offered sellers an additional edge which could have plunged the price another 2.2% to hit the next significant support of the ascending trendline.

In the face of increasing uncertainty, this rising support could replenish the bullish momentum to trigger a sustained recovery.

Can ETH Price Recuperate Bullish Recovery?

Since the breakdown of the megaphone pattern’s support, the price action is still wavering daily chart. The crackdown happened nearly a week ago and should have triggered a significant downfall, but instead, this sideways walk indicates weakness in bearish momentum. If buyers stepped in this consolidation, the coin price may return inside the pattern and mark the prior breakdown as a bear trap. This scenario would increase the buying pressure and surge the ETH price above $2000

  • Average Directional Index: An uptick in the strength indicator called ADX reflects the seller’s potential to carry extended correction
