Ethereum price looks dicey
Ethereum price has rallied 20% since last week’s successful trade setup. ETH price is currently confined within a daily trend channel as the price consolidates at $3,290.The bears will likely attempt to send the ETH price back into the breached weekly trend line, currently around $3,000. The 50-day moving average and a previous weekly swing high also line up in the vicinity of the trend line, which should give more confidence for a bearish target.

Still, nothing is ever set in stone when it comes to Cryptocurrencies. The bulls can still maintain strength, but they must breach the current swing high at $3,481. If this were to occur, the ETH price could continue charging higher towards $3,700 and potentially $4,000, up to 22% above the current Ethereum price.
