Ethereum Price Analysis: ETH Sideways Consolidation To End With a Wild Move?

Author: Yaz Sheikh

Last Updated Dec 30, 2020 @ 15:08

Ethereum moved sideways over the past 3-days but is still up by 15.5% this week as it battles with the $735 resistance. Against BTC, it surged higher to meet resistance at 0.027 BTC.

Getting your audio player ready...

ETH/USD – Ethereum Bulls Battling To Head Toward $750

Key Support Levels: $720, $700, $675.
Key Resistance Levels: $750, $762, $790.

Etheruem surged by 15.5% this week, which allowed it to break resistance at $674 (bearish .786 Fib Retracement) to reach the current $735 price.

The coin struggled to break $733 (1.414 Fib Extension) over the past 2-days and is continuing to consolidate in the past few days below $750  something that’s likely to end with a wild move. It is essential to wait for a daily candle close above $733 before confirming that it is ready to head toward $750 and beyond.

ETH-USD Short Term Price Prediction

Looking ahead, the first level of resistance lies at $750 (bearish .886 Fib Retracement). This is followed by $762, $790, and $800. Beyond $800, additional resistance lies at $816 and $855.

Alternatively, if the sellers push lower, the first level of support lies at $720. This is followed by $700, $675, and $645 (.382 Fib).

The RSI is approaching overbought conditions and is starting to flatten out, suggesting that the bullish momentum might be ready to subside. Additionally, the Stochastic RSI is setting up a bearish crossover signal that could send the market lower.

ETH/BTC – ETH Rebound Stalls At 0.027 BTC.

Key Support Levels: 0.026 BTC, 0.0251 BTC, 0.0245 BTC.
Key Resistance Levels: 0.027 BTC, 0.0276 BTC 0.0284 BTC.

Against Bitcoin, EThereum bounced from the 0.024 BTC level earlier in the week and managed to push as high as 0.027 BTC. There, it met resistance at a bearish .382 Fib Retracement and could not break above this level.

As a result, ETH dropped slightly and is now trading at 0.0261 BTC.

ETH-BTC Short Term Price Prediction

Looking ahead, if the bulls can regroup, the first level of resistance lies at 0.027 BTC. This is followed by resistance at 0.0276 BTC, 0.0284 BTC (Feb 2020 High), and 0.029 BTC.

On the other side, support first lies at 0.026 BTC. This is followed by 0.0251 BTC, 0.0245 BTC (July 2020 lows), and 0.024 BTC.

The RSI has reversed from the mid-line to indicate that the bulls could not take control of the market momentum. It is heading lower to suggest that the bearish momentum is once again increasing. Again, the Stochastic RSI is also shaping up for a bearish crossover signal in the coming week.
