The short-term outlook for Ethereum price and the bias is revealed when looking at the daily time price opportunity (TPO) chart. This chart tracks the time spent by Ethereum at key levels rather than volume. 

The price action for ETH between March 10 and 17, created a value area that extends from $1,874 to $1,924. The recent crash in Ethereum was supported by demand in this area. So far, the value area low at $1,874 is holding strong. If the outlook for Bitcoin improves, investors can expect price to bounce and revisit the $2,000 psychological level next. This is the short-term target for next week. 

From a swing trade perspective, investors can expect the Point of Controls (POCs) at $2,180, $2,286, and $2,362 as the next key take profit levels, assuming the $1,874 support level holds.

So, the chances of Ethereum price dropping below $1,500 is slim especially if Bitcoin price halts its south-bound move and sets upa higher low here. Regardless, some expect, BTC to drop to $82K, which could suggest that there is a chance ETH could hit $1,500, but a breakdown of this key level on weekly or month level is highly unlikely.

A hopeful outlook for the future is the SEC’s approval of Ethereum ETF staking, which could improve the odds for Ethereum price and potentially spark a bounce to $3K or higher.
