Key points: 

  • A bearish reversal from the $1300 resistance may trigger a sideways trend in Ethereum

The recent recovery in the crypto market pushed the Ethereum price to a high of $1300. Hitting the psychological resistance, the altcoin triggered a minor pullback and retested the flipped support of $1238.

While the market sentiment remained uncertain, the ETH price continued to wobble between these aforementioned levels and created a narrow range. However, today, the long bearish candle accounted for a 3.35% loss and breached the $1238 support.

The bearish fallout indicates the sellers’ attempt to regain the trend and undermine the recent recovery gains.  Furthermore, the Ethereum price currently trades at $1229 and should offer a daily candle closing to confirm this support breakdown.

This development will accelerate the bearish momentum and plunge the prices 6% down to hit $1160 support.
