Over the past eight days, the Ethereum price has resonated between creating a narrow range in the daily time frame chart. This consolidation came after a significant fall indicating the sellers must be recuperating the exhausted bearish momentum to resume the previous fall.
By the press time, the second largest cryptocurrency traded at $1660 with an intraday loss of 0.27%. If the bearish market sentiment continues, the coin sellers may rechallenge the bottom support of $1577.
A potential breakdown from this support will hint at the resumption of the downward trend and may push the prices to the $1500-1450 demand zone. In addition, the falling prices may also meet a rising trendline at the aforementioned support, indicating a higher possibility of a bullish reversal.

As earlier reported by Coingape, the Ethereum price is witnessing increased whale activity near the $1650 mark. The presence of high accumulation from below may bolster buyers to challenge the $1700 resistance. A bullish breakout from this barrier will trigger a bullish pullback in a downward trend which could push the price back to $1800. However, until the buyers break above the August 17th high of $1809, the bearish outlook will remain intact.
