Ethereum Faces Rejection at $3,000 high, May Revisit Previous Low at $2033

For the past two days, Ether price has been consolidating near the $3,000 resistance zone. Buyers fail to sustain the bullish momentum above the recent high. Nonetheless, if the current consolidation continues, the crypto has a greater chance of price breakout.

It is assumed that consolidation near a resistance zone increases the chances of a breakout. The biggest altcoin will be confined in a range between $2033 and $3,000 for a few days if the current resistance remains unbroken. The lower price range was created when the bears tested the current support twice in the last bearish impulse. 

The bears could not break the current support. There are candlesticks with long tails indicating that the support at $2033 has strong buying pressure. Ether will rally to $3,500 if buyers sustain ETH above the current resistance. On the other hand, sellers will revisit the previous low if the altcoin turns from the resistance zone.
