The Ethereum price turned sideways after the recent bloodbath in the crypto market initiated due to the collapse of FTX- crypto exchange, and panic selling in the market. The coin price currently trades at $1207 and has been reasoning within a descending triangle pattern for nearly two weeks.
The lower high formation with this bearish continuation pattern reflects a gradual decrease in bullish momentum. Furthermore, in response to this pattern, the prices eventually breach the neckline support to resume the prior downtrend.
The Ethereum price spread within the triangle has narrowed enough to be declared as a no-trading zone. Furthermore, the prices are close to the pattern’s apex suggesting the breakdown is near.
Thus, a daily candle closing below $1190 will signal the replenished bearish momentum, which could plunge the prices 10% down to rechallenge the $110 support. However, if the selling pressure persists, the altccoin will revisit the $1000 psychological support.
On a contrary note, a bullish breakout from the overhead trendline will undermine the bearish thesis and may drive the price to $1340.
Technical indicator
RSI: a minor bullish divergence in the daily-RSI slope reflect the increasing buying pressure at $1120 support. A bullish crossover above the midline will signal the market sentiment has turned bullish.
EMAs: the downsloping EMAS(20, 50, 100, and 200) indicates the potential swing would face multiple heads.
