  • ETH price declined heavily this past week and broke the $166 and $160 supports against the US Dollar.
  • The price even broke the $155 support level and traded close to the $146 level.
  • There is a crucial bearish trend line formed with resistance at $172 on the 4-hours chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken).
  • The pair could correct higher in the short term, but it is likely to face sellers near $160 or $162.

Ethereum price declined below important support levels versus the US Dollar and bitcoin. ETH is currently correcting higher, but it is likely to struggle near $160, $162 and $165.

Ethereum Price Weekly Analysis

This past week, Ethereum price started a major downward move below the $170 support against the US Dollar. The ETH/USD pair traded below the $166 and $160 support levels to enter a bearish zone. Besides, there was a close below the $160 level and the 100 simple moving average (4-hours). Finally, the price even broke the $155 support levels and spiked below $150. A new weekly low was formed just above $146 and the price recently corrected higher.

There was a break above $152 and the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $172 high to $146 swing low. The pair seems to be following a short term ascending channel with support at $153 on the 4-hours chart of ETH/USD. On the upside, there are many hurdles for the bulls near the $160 level. Above $160, the next key resistance is near $162 and the 100 simple moving average (4-hours). The 50% Fib retracement level of the last decline from the $172 high to $146 swing low is also near $162.

More importantly, there is a crucial bearish trend line formed with resistance at $172 on the same chart. Therefore, if the price corrects higher, sellers are likely to protect the $160 or $162 resistance level. Only a close above $170 and the 100 simple moving average (4-hours) could open the doors for more gains. On the downside, a break below the $152 and $150 support could restart downtrend.
