The Ethereum price is approaching the resistance zone

The Ethereum price reached a high of $2,737 on May 13. Buyers were unable to push the altcoin above its historical price of $2,800 on February 24.

Long-term analysis of the Ethereum price: bullish

Ethereum is experiencing rejection at higher price levels while bulls are buying the dips. The largest altcoin was rejected despite falling back above the key support of $2,400. Today, the largest altcoin has risen above the $2,600 support. A jump above $2,600 will push the price above the $2,800 mark. In both cases, the price will rise to the psychological price level of $3,000. The upward trend will continue to a high of $3,400. However, the upside scenario will be nullified if the altcoin fails to break through the $2,800 mark. On the downside, Ether will fall with the bears trying to break the critical support at $2,400, which will see the altcoin fall above the 21-day SMA or the support at $2,000.

Ethereum indicator analysis

The upward sloping moving average lines are now sloping horizontally as the upswing has come to an end. Over the past week, Ether has been trading in a range on the 4-hour chart.

What is the next direction for Ethereum?

The price of the cryptocurrency is oscillating both below and above the 21-day SMA support. If the resistance line is broken, Ether will resume its uptrend.
