Ethereum Price Analysis: Bloodbath On Crypto Market Triggers Fallout From Descending Wedge Pattern

The shared resistance of $3580 and 200 DMA triggered a minor retracement in ETH/USDT pair. On April 6th, the sellers gave a strong breakdown from the $3300 support, suggesting further price correction to $3000. A bullish crossover between 50 and 100 DMA at $3000 support may provide dip opportunities to long traders.

During the recent recovery rally, the ETH price outperformed Bitcoin through a 47% gain in the last three weeks. The bullish rally hit the $3457 resistance zone, its highest level since early January.

However, the sellers took advantage of the current volatility in the market and slumped the altcoin below the $3300 support. As a result, the ETH price tumbled by 10% since last week and is poised to provide a weekly closing below the breached support.

The weekend is spent to retest the $3300 flipped resistance and confirm a genuine breakdown. The 20 DMA would assist sellers in maintaining trend control and dumping the altcoin by another 8.5% to $3000 physiological support.

The interested buyers need to watch this level closely as a bullish crossover among the 50 and 100 DMA at the support zone($3000) may bolster an upside reversal. 

  • Resistance level: $3350 and $3600
  • Support levels: $3000 and $2738
