Ethereum Price Trend Line
Ethereum price ETH surged higher recently versus the new dollar and we even saw a new monthly high of $14.22. There was a nice upside move, and showed that the price remains in an uptrend. ETH/USD is currently correcting lower. It already broke the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $10.17 low to $14.21 high. So, there is a chance that the pair may trade down further from the current levels.
However, the price remains supported on the downside due to a few important reasons. First, there is a bullish trend line formed on the daily chart of ETH/USD (data feed via SimpleFX). Second, the 100-day simple moving average is on the downside to act as a support. Third, the 50% Fib retracement level of the last wave from the $10.17 low to $14.21 high is sitting near the trend line support.
So, we can say that there is a major support on the downside. I feel as long as the price is above the 100-day simple moving average one may consider buying. A stop in that scenario should be placed below the trend line support and a close.
Daily MACD – The MACD is in the bullish zone, which is a positive sign.
