Ether Struggles Above $3,800 As It Reaches An Overbought State

The price of Ethereum (ETH) has retested the $3,800 resistance twice as buyers try to sustain the upside momentum above this level.

Long-term analysis of the Ethereum price: bullish

Buyers are planning to push the largest altcoin to a high of $4,000. On March 5, Ether tested resistance around $3805, but then quickly fell to a low of $3,200. Bulls immediately bought the dips, and Ether returned to a high of $3,830 at the time of writing.

The extended candlestick tail on March 5 indicates significant buying pressure near the $3,200 support level. The bulls have tested this obstacle for the second time. On the upside, if buyers maintain their bullish momentum, Ether will rally to a high of $4,000. On the downside, Ether would have fallen further if the $3,200 support or the 21-day SMA were breached. Ether will reach a low of $2,735.
