Selling pressure is expected to be exhausted when the price reaches the oversold region

The price of Ethereum (ETH) fell to a low of $3,327 today and continues its sideways movement. At the current price level, the largest altcoin is considered to have fallen into oversold territory in the market.

Selling pressure is expected to be exhausted when the price reaches the oversold region. In the meantime, the market is moving above support at $3,300, and if the current support holds, Ethereum will break back up through resistance at $3,500. However, if the bears surprisingly break the current support, the market will fall back to the support at $2,800. In recent price action, the market has been in a downward correction above the $2,800 support. The largest altcoin is likely to rise again if it falls back to the support above the 50-day line SMA.
