Ether will consolidate for a few days

Today, following the recent rally to $1,225 high, Ethereum has been retracing on a downward move. Ether retraced to $1,154 support and resumed upward.

Today, the market has begun a fresh uptrend on the upside. The bullish scenario is that if the bulls sustain the current uptrend, buyers will break the minor resistance at $1,230. Then the bullish momentum will extend to breach the $1,424, January 2018 historical price level.

Nonetheless, the biggest altcoin has set another record by breaking the $1,100 price level. This has been the first since 2018. Conversely, if the current upward move fails to sustain, the crypto will be compelled to a range-bound move in a tight range. Possibly, Ether will consolidate for a few days before the resumption of an upward move.
