On the daily chart, the ETH price dropped 35% from the swing highs of $3,548.51. The formation of a Doji candlestick followed by a strong red candlestick led to a fall in the asset. However, the price is harboring a strong support level of around $2,950 since April 11 making it a crucial level to hold for the bulls.

In addition to that, the formation of the ‘Symmetrical triangle’ indicates the price approached near the converging trend lines. The increased selling pressure could result in the lower breakout of the triangle with eyes on $2,750.

On the other hand, if the price is able to close above the session’s highs it would make bulls hopeful of a quick recovery to toward $3,100. This will also mark the piercing of the 50-day ema and break of the symmetrical triangle.

Investors shall collect the buy-side liquidity toward the horizontal resistance level at $3,400.
