Ethereum Consolidates, What Could Trigger Strong Recovery in ETH

Posted on July 16, 2021

Ethereum restarted its decline after it failed to stay above $2,000 against the US Dollar. ETH price is holding the $1,880 support, but it must clear $2,000 for a decent increase.

Ethereum started a fresh decline and it once again tested the $1,880 support zone.
The price is still trading well below the $2,000 resistance and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
There is a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near $1,955 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken).
The pair could start a decent increase if it clears the $1,965 and $2,000 resistance levels.
