Ethereum holds recent gains

On January 19, the bull’s inability to break above the $180 resistance level compelled Ethereum to a range-bound movement. Ether is on a tight range between $160 and $170. Incidentally, the continual ranging will lead to a price breakout or breakdown. Now if the price breaks the $170 resistance level and the bulls are successful, the coin will reach a high of $200.

Conversely, the range-bound movement will persist if sellers defend the $170 resistance level. It is unlikely that a breakdown will occur at the $160 support as the buyers are still in control. A breakdown can result in the coin falling to the low of either $144 or $140 price level.

Ethereum Indicator Analysis 

The price bars are above the EMAs which implies that the coin is likely to rise. In other words, EMAs provide strong support for Ether. The coin is currently trading below 80% range of the daily stochastic. Nonetheless, the bearish momentum seems to be exhausted.
