Ethereum Price Prediction| TradingView Chart

On December 5th, the Ethereum price recovery gave a bullish breakout from the resistance trendline of a long-coming resistance or wedge pattern. This chart pattern carried a steady and low recovery for over a year, and therefore an upside breakout is needed.to recuperate the exhausted bullish momentum and start a directional trend.

However, with the increasing supply pressure, the Ethereum coin price reverted from $2385 and reentered the wedge pattern. This breakdown undermined the last breakout and marked it as a fake breakdown.

By the press time, the ETH price was trading at $2189 with an intraday loss of 1.56 %. If the selling momentum persists, the bears could attempt a breakdown immediately below $2133.

Should this occur, the selling momentum would accelerate and could tumble the prices 12% to hit $1916.
