Ethereum Price Finds Demand at 38.2% FIB Amid Market Sell-off; Buy this Dip?

Highlights

The Ethereum’s Fear and Greed index at 56% reflects the greed(bullish) sentiment among market participants.
The ETH price correction should find suitable support levels at $3100 and $2750.
The intraday trading volume in Ether is $24 Billion, indicating a 96% gain.

This week saw a notable increase in the cryptocurrency market’s volatility, spurred on by the anticipation of the upcoming Bitcoin Halving event. The early week recovery in the market reverted quickly on the weekend as the BTC price fell to a low of $65133 on Friday. Amid this downfall, the ETH price plunged to swing low support of $3100, seeking stable support to prevent a prolonged downfall.

The Ethereum (ETH) coin has been under a correction trend for over a month, showcasing prices dropping from $4095 to $3100, registering a 25% downfall. However, the lower level coinciding with the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level and currently with a 100-day EMA slope creates a high area of interest(AOI) for buyers.

The ETH price currently trades at the $3258 mark and with an intraday gain of 0.57% it shows a long-tail rejection at $3100 support, indicating the demand pressure is intact.

For buyers to sustain above this level in the coming days is crucial to indicate the sentiment of ‘buying the dip’ is intact. The renewed recovery may surge the ETH price by 14% to break the $3730 resistance, followed by a prior swing high of $4100.

$106M Worth of ETH Hits Exchanges During Market Dip

Lookonchain, the on-chain data tracker reported that during a market dip, four significant Ethereum stakeholders have collectively moved 31,683 ETH to exchanges, a sum equating to approximately $106 million.

The transactions saw Cumberland depositing 17,206 ETH; another entity, associated with the wallet address starting with 0xc3f8, sent 7,976 ETH to Binance; the wallet beginning with 0x1717 moved 4,000 ETH; and Alameda Research transferred 2,500 ETH to Binance. This considerable movement of funds is causing a stir in the crypto community amid market correction.

A breakdown below $3100 will favor sellers to lead to a prolonged downfall.
