Ethereum Pauses above $2,000 Support amidst Bullish Expectation

Ether price is hovering above the $2000 psychological price level after attaining a peak price of $2,142.70. On April 2, buyers pushed the biggest altcoin to the $2,150 resistance zone.

The uptrend was interrupted as the altcoin fell to the $2,000 support. Ether is now consolidating above the current support as price resumes a sideways move. The uptrend will resume if buyers defend the current support and push ETH price on the upside. Ethereum will rally $2,500 if the bulls are successful. However, if the bullish scenario fails to hold, the bears will break the current support, and the market will decline to $1,800 low. Meanwhile, Ether is fluctuating between levels $2,000 and $2,150.
