Ethereum Price Analysis: On July 13, the Ethereum coin price breached a weekly resistance of $1966 as a signal of uptrend continuation. However, the coin price faced immediate supply pressure at $$2000 psychological resistance and plunged below 1966. This failed breakout suggests the recent rally was driven by market sentiment and not by the coin’s own strength. Thus, the ETH price could witness a minor pullback before resuming the recovery trend.

The Ethereum price failure to sustain $1966 must have trapped the hasty buyers who entered the breakout traders. Such bull traps are strong bearish signals as the price usually forces the liquidation of the trapped buyers and brings more selling orders into the market.

By the press time, Ethereum price traded at $1940 with an intraday of 0.43%. If the selling pressure persists, the coin price tumble 7.5% to retest a local support of $1830. Over the past three weeks, this support has offered a dip opportunity to buyers and maintained a recovery rally.

In addition, the ETH price is still in a higher high and higher low state, indicating the bullish trend is intact.
