Ethereum / USD Short-term price analysis

Ethereum has a bullish short-term trading bias, with the cryptocurrency still trading well above its 200-period moving average on the four-hour time frame.

The four-hour time frame shows that a technical pullback is underway, after the ETH / USD pair found strong weekly resistance from just above the $185.00 level.

Price is now probing the neckline of a bullish inverted head and shoulders pattern, with key near-term support below the neckline found at $148.00.

MACD Indicator

Ethereum / USD Medium-term price analysis

Ethereum has a bullish medium-term trading bias, with the ETH / USD pair continuing to trade above its 200-day moving average, which is currently located at the $152.00 level.

The daily time frame also shows a large inverted head and shoulders pattern, with it failing so far to reach its overall upside objective.

Pattern Watch

Traders should note that the overall upside target of the inverted head and shoulders pattern on the daily time frame will take the ETH / USD pair towards the $230.00 level.

Relative Strength Index

The RSI Indicator on the daily time frame is bullish, although it is starting to correct from extremely overbought conditions.

MACD Indicator

The MACD indicator on the daily time frame is showing that the MACD histogram is trending lower, while the MACD signal line is still bullish.

 

Conclusion

Ethereum is coming under pressure in the near-term after bulls failed to fully ignite the bullish inverted head and shoulders pattern. If sellers can move price under the neckline of the bullish inverted head and shoulders pattern, the $152.00 still offers strong technical support.

Overall, medium-term bulls still have the upper-hand while the inverted head and shoulders pattern on daily time frames remain valid.
