Ethereum Trades Marginally as It Targets the $2,200 High

Ethereum (ETH) is trading marginally, heading for a high of $1,888. Buyers have pushed Ether above resistance at $1,700 and $1,785.

The largest cryptocurrency should rally to the high of $2,053 if the bulls break the resistance levels. The price movement was insignificant because there were indecisive candles with small bodies called doji and spinning tops. Moreover, Ether is trading in the overbought region of the market. There is a risk that Ether will decline if sellers appear in the overbought region. If Ether fails to recover to the high of $2,053, it will fall and continue the range bound movement.
